What Is Arthritis?

Arthritis refers to inflammation of the joints, leading to pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced mobility. There are more than 100 types, but the most common forms include:

1.Osteoarthritis (OA)

The most widespread form—also known as “wear-and-tear arthritis.”
Occurs when the protective cartilage cushioning the joint breaks down.

2. Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)

An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the joints, causing inflammation and damage.

3. Post-Traumatic Arthritis

Develops after injuries such as fractures, ligament tears, or dislocations.

4. Inflammatory Arthritis

Includes conditions like psoriatic arthritis, gout, and ankylosing spondylitis.
