What Is Arthritis?

Arthritis is a common condition characterized by inflammation of one or more joints, leading to pain and stiffness. It encompasses over 100 different types, with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis being among the most prevalent. This inflammation can result in cartilage breakdown, bone erosion, and changes in joint structure, making movement difficult.

Arthritis Symptoms

Joint Pain

Persistent aching or throbbing pain in the affected joints is a hallmark symptom of arthritis. This pain often worsens with activity or after periods of rest, impacting daily tasks.

Many individuals experience joint stiffness, particularly in the mornings or after long periods of inactivity. This can make it difficult to get moving and perform routine activities.

Inflammation within the joint capsule often leads to noticeable swelling around the affected area. This swelling can make joints appear larger and feel tender to the touch.

As arthritis progresses, the range of motion in affected joints can significantly decrease. This limitation restricts flexibility and can make simple movements challenging.

Inflammation can cause the skin over an affected joint to feel warm and appear reddish. This symptom is often indicative of active inflammation and can be accompanied by tenderness.

Main Causes of Arthritis

The causes of arthritis vary widely depending on the specific type. Osteoarthritis typically results from age-related wear and tear on cartilage, while rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks joint tissues. Other causes include infections, injuries, genetic predisposition, and metabolic abnormalities.
