What is arthritis?

Arthritis is a general term for conditions that affect the joints and surrounding tissues. The most common form of arthritis, osteoarthritis, occurs when the protective cartilage on the ends of your bones wears down over time.

The different types of arthritis

There are many different types of arthritis, but the most common are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease that occurs when the cartilage between your joints breaks down. This can cause pain, stiffness, and swelling in the affected joints. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that causes the body’s immune system to attack the joints. This can lead to pain, swelling, and stiffness in the affected joints. There are many other less common types of arthritis, such as gout, psoriatic arthritis, and lupus-related arthritis.

Symptoms of arthritis

There are many different types of arthritis, each with its own set of symptoms. The most common symptom is pain, which can range from mild to severe. Other symptoms include inflammation, stiffness, and/or joint damage.

Arthritis is a chronic condition, meaning that it can last for months or years.Symptoms may come and go, or they may stay the same for long periods of time. Some people with arthritis have only a few symptoms, while others have many.

The severity of arthritis symptoms can vary from person to person. Some people have mild symptoms that do not interfere with their daily activities, while others have severe symptoms that make it difficult to perform even basic tasks.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to managing arthritis symptoms. What works for one person may not work for another. It is important to work with your healthcare team to develop a plan that fits your needs and lifestyle.

Treatment options for arthritis

There are many different types of arthritis, and each type requires different treatment. The most common treatments for arthritis are:

– Pain medication: over-the-counter (OTC) pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen can help relieve arthritis pain. Prescription pain medications may also be used for more severe pain.

– Anti-inflammatory drugs: these can help reduce inflammation and pain. Common examples include corticosteroids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

– Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs): these can slow the progression of arthritis by reducing inflammation. DMARDs can be taken orally or injected, and examples include methotrexate and hydroxychloroquine.

– Biologic agents: these are newer drugs that target specific areas of the immune system to reduce inflammation. Biologic agents are usually taken as injections or infusions, and examples include adalimumab, etanercept, and infliximab.

– Surgery: in some cases, surgery may be needed to repair damage caused by arthritis or to correct joint deformities.
