Arthritis is a general term which is commonly associated with a number of painful conditions affecting the joints and bones.

The term "arthritis" literally translates to "joint inflammation."

There are approximately 100 different forms of this condition, and it affects millions of people throughout the world.

Symptoms can include joint pain, stiffness, inflammation, and limited movement of joints. When a joint is inflamed, it may be swollen, tender, red, or warm to the touch.

In a healthy joint, the ends of the bones are covered by cartilage, a spongy material that allows almost frictionless motion between bones.

The joints are enclosed in a capsule and lined with tissue called the synovium. This lining releases a slippery, lubricating fluid that helps the joint move smoothly and easily.

With arthritis, the cartilage may be damaged or worn away by degenerative processes or by inflammation, making movement painful and difficult.

If left undiagnosed and untreated, arthritis may progress to cause irreversible damage to the joints.

Contrary to popular belief, arthritis affects all age groups. Its more common in those over forty-five, and in the case of osteoarthritis, three-fourths of the cases occur in women.
