  • Juvenile arthritis (JA), is a disorder where the immune system attacks the tissue around the joints in children of age 16 or younger.

  • Gout, is a disease that causes some hard crystals of uric acid to form in the joints.

  • Psoriatic arthritis is a joint inflammation that develops in people with psoriasis that is an autoimmune disorder causing skin irritation.

  • Rheumatoid arthritis, is a disease in which the immune system attacks the synovial membranes in your joints.

Causes

This disease is of various types having different causes!For instance, gout is caused as a result of too much uric acid in your body. But for other types of arthritis, the perfect cause is unknown. One may develop arthritis if one has:

  • a family history of arthritis.

  • a job or play a sport that puts repeated stress on your joints.

  • certain autoimmune diseases or viral infections.

Non-surgical treatments

  • Medication

    Various Anti-inflammatory and pain medications can be of some help to  relieve your arthritis symptoms. Some medications, called biologics, act by targeting your immune system’s inflammatory response. A healthcare provider may recommend some biologics for rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis.

  • Physical therapy

    Rehabilitation is the process that can help improve strength, range of motion and the overall mobility. Therapists can teach you about how to adjust your daily activities so as to lessen the arthritic pain.

Therapeutic injections: Cortisone shots may help temporarily in relieving the pain and inflammation in your joints. Arthritis in certain joints, like your knee, may move towards improvement with a treatment called visco supplementation. It injects a lubricant that helps the joints move smoothly.
