Arthritis is a condition that affects the joints, leading to pain, swelling, and stiffness. It can affect any joint in the body and present different symptoms depending on the type. The two main types of arthritis are Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Types of Arthritis

1. Osteoarthritis (OA):
   Osteoarthritis is caused by the normal wear and tear of the body over time. It leads to degenerative changes in the joints, reducing joint space and causing stiffness and discomfort during movement. This condition is often accompanied by swelling and pain in the affected joints.
2. Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA):
   Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder in which the body’s immune system attacks its own cells that produce lubricating fluids in the joints. This increases joint friction and results in inflammation within the joints.
3. Other Types:
   • Gouty Arthritis
   • Psoriatic Arthritis
   • Infectious Arthritis

Causes of Arthritis

• Degenerative changes in the joints
• Infections or inflammation within the joints
• Autoimmune disorders and diseases
