How can I find treatment of Arthritis And Other Kinds Of Joint Pains?

Arthritis is a joint inflammation that can cause excruciating joint pain. There are over 100 different types of arthritis and related conditions. The most common type of arthritis is osteoarthritis (OA), also known as degenerative arthritis. The common types are:

Osteoarthritis

With osteoarthritis, the cartilage in your joints wears down, causing your bones to rub together and your joints to become inflamed, resulting in pain, bone injury, and even the formation of bone spurs. It may affect only one or two joints on one side of the body. Age, obesity, injuries, a family history, and joint overuse can all increase your chances of developing it. A doctor will take your medical history and perform a physical exam to determine if you have osteoarthritis. They may request X-rays and other imaging studies. They may also take a fluid sample from inside an affected joint to check for infection.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder that causes your body to attack healthy joint tissue. Joint deformities can develop over time. Sjögren's syndrome is a common complication of RA. This condition causes severe dryness in the eyes and mouth.

Gout

Gout is a type of arthritis caused by the buildup of urate crystals within your joints. Gout can be caused by high levels of uric acid in the blood. Gout can be excruciatingly painful. The most likely affected joint is the one at the base of your big toe, but it can also potentially affect other joints.
