Arthritis Today

Arthritis Today is a magazine published four times a year by the Arthritis Research Campaign (arc), covering topical issues facing people with arthritis and musculoskeletal conditions.

The magazine enables readers to keep in touch with issues relating to arthritis, and offers an opportunity to learn about the latest treatments and self-help available.

We regularly reproduce selected articles from the magazine on this site. Check below for the features from the latest issue.

We also reproduce The Hints Box, a popular section of Arthritis Today in which readers suggest their tips and hints on how to live with arthritis.
