Arthritis is a painful inflammation of the joints that usually strikes the elderly, but can be acquired at any point in the human life cycle. It is also regarded as an infection in the joint fluid and tissues. Symptoms of this disorder, like swelling, pain, and stiffness in the joints, are horribly debilitating and can greatly affect an individual's quality of life. Although commonly regarded as a single disease, arthritis is actually the blanket terminology for more than 200 medical conditions. The more common among these conditions are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, with rheumatic arthritis primarily affecting women between the ages of 25-50 years of age. Collectively, this painful ailment afflicts over 8 million UK residents, making joint redness, stiffness and severe pain a part of the sufferers daily lives.

Many victims of arthritis complain that the pain is often worse in the mornings. In addition to hot, painful swelling and stiffness, arthritis can also cause a general feeling of being unwell.

What causes arthritis?

Osteoarthritis is one of the oldest and most common diseases around and is often caused by general wear and tear of the cartilage between adjoining bones. Any human over 60 will have it to some degree, with a few experience extreme symptoms. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is thought to be largely genetic, so family history can be a factor in getting the disease. This form of arthritis is called an autoimmune disorder, largely because normally friendly antibodies, i.e. those that attack invading germs to prevent infection, actually turn against the body’s own tissues.

To date, doctors are uncertain as to what actually causes the onset of RA.
