The Arthritis Center
Please review to our Health Advisory Message before proceeding.
The term arthritis refers to more than 100 different diseases that
affect the joints (the places in your body where bones meet) and,
sometimes, muscles and other tissues. These diseases fall into two
categories. One form of arthritis—called degenerative arthritis or
osteoarthritis—results from the breakdown of the cushioning tissue inside
joints called cartilage. The other form of arthritis—called inflammatory
arthritis—results from inflammation (redness, warmth, and swelling) in the
joints. Rheumatoid arthritis is a type of inflammatory arthritis.
If you have arthritis, the more you know about the disorder, the more
successful your treatment is likely to be and the better control you'll
have over your symptoms. The Arthritis Center will help you understand
two of the most common types of arthritis, Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis, so that you can make well-informed decisions about your
treatment, and use the many alternative and self-help treatments available.
