Arthritis simply means inflammation in the joints. Joint inflammation causes pain, swelling, warmth and stiffness over time. These symptoms may be common with all form of arthritis.

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease, resulting in loss of elasticity of the joint cartilage which functions as shock-absorbers between two joints. Over time, as the cartilage wears off, bone friction increases causing pain. Though OA may affect any joint, the knees, hips and spine are commonly affected due to repeated wear and tear.

Causes: Obesity, Injury, joint overuse and hereditary factors are commonly responsible for OA.

Diagnosis: An x-ray is usually sufficient for determining the onset of OA.

Rheumatoid arthritis is also a chronic form of arthritis, the cause of which is unknown. It usually manifests bilaterally, affecting joints on both sides of the body. Rarely, RA may occasionally affect the skin, eyes, lungs, heart, blood, nerves or kidneys. The disease onset, progression and duration vary considerably among those affected.

Causes: The precise mechanism is unknown. It is widely believed that a faulty immune response in which the immune system attacks the joints and organs causes RA (autoimmune disease). Viral affection and numerous environmental, hormonal, emotional and genetic factors are considered as triggers of the immune system. Approximately 2 million Americans have RA with a higher incidence among women.

Diagnosis: A combination of factors indicates RA as individual symptoms and Laboratory results vary significantly.

1. Symmetrical affection of joints
2. Joint stiffness on waking
3. X-rays indicating RA type degeneration
4. Positive Rheumatoid Factor (RF) in blood tests
5. Presence of nodules under the skin called rheumatic nodules

Anemia, increased ESR and positive ANA (Antinuclear Antibody) may also be detected in a person with RA.

Local or systemic pain killers and corticosteroids are the conventional line of treatment, besides numerous other drugs. Weight reduction, physiotherapy and hot or cold compresses may also be recommended. Arthroscopy (repair of damaged cartilage) and joint replacement may be considered in advanced cases.
