Arthritis is a term encompassing various inflammatory joint diseases that cause pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced mobility in affected joints. The two most common types are osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Osteoarthritis, often associated with aging, involves the gradual wear and tear of cartilage, leading to joint pain and stiffness. Rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune condition, occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the synovial lining of joints, causing inflammation and joint damage. Other forms include gout, characterized by sudden, severe pain due to uric acid crystal buildup, and psoriatic arthritis, which is linked with psoriasis. Treatment for arthritis typically includes medication to manage pain and inflammation, physical therapy to maintain joint function and mobility, and lifestyle modifications such as weight management and regular exercise. In some cases, surgical interventions like joint replacement may be considered to restore joint function and alleviate pain.
