Arthritis
Joint and connective Tissue Disease
Arthritis is characterized
by an inflammation or pain of the joints. Symptoms
can vary from pain, stiffness, and swelling to deformity. Inflammatory
arthritis attacks the synovial membranes surrounding the
lubricating fluid in the joints. The cartilage and
tissues in and around the joints are destroyed.
The body replaces this damaged tissue with scar tissue,
causing the spaces between the joints to become narrow, and to
fuse together.
Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid arthritis
Osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease in
which the cartilage that covers the ends of bones in the joint
deteriorates, causing pain and loss of movement as bone
begins to rub against bone.
Rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune
disease in which the joint lining becomes irritated as part of
the body’s immune system activity. Rheumatoid arthritis
is one of the most severe and disabling types.
