About Arthritis
The swelling and tenderness of one or more joints are symptoms of arthritis. Joint stiffness and pain are the primary signs of arthritis, and these symptoms typically get worse with age. Rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis are the two most prevalent types of arthritis.
Cartilage, the tough, slick tissue that covers the ends of bones where they come together to form a joint, deteriorates as a result of osteoarthritis. The immune system attacks the joints in rheumatoid arthritis, starting with the lining of the joints.
Gout can be brought on by uric acid crystals, which develop when your blood uric acid level is too high. Other forms of arthritis can be brought on by infections or underlying conditions like lupus or psoriasis.
The type of arthritis and the treatments vary. Treatments for arthritis primarily aim to lessen symptoms and enhance quality of life.
