Arthritis is the condition in which there is pain in joints of a person. It is due to degenerative changes in the body. Now a days even the people after 30’s may suffer from arthritis.

What causes arthritis?

As arthritis affects the joints, we must know how the joint works, to know its cause.

A joint is where one bone moves on another bone. Ligaments hold the two bones together. The ligaments are like elastic bands, which keep the bones in their place. The muscles relax or contract for the movement. Cartilage covers the bone surface in order to prevent the two bones from rubbing directly against each other. The covering of cartilage allows the joint to work smoothly and pain free.

A capsule surrounds the joint. The space within the joint contains synovial fluid. Synovial fluid nourishes the joint and the cartilage. The synovial membrane produces the joint fluid.

There are various types of arthritis, and the cause depends on its type. The types of arthritis are –

1.Osteoarthritis – In this the cartilage loses its elasticity. If the cartilage is stiff it becomes damaged more easily. The cartilage that acts as a shock absorber, decreases. As cartilage prevents the bones from rubbing against each other, when it decreases, the bones rub against each other and cause extreme pain.

2, Rheumatoid arthritis – This is an inflammatory form of arthritis. The synovial membrane (synovium) is attacked. By this the joint lining is affected. The inflammation affects not only the joints, but also other parts of body causing excessive pain and tiredness. It is more common in women than men. 70% of patients who suffer from it are women.

Infectious arthritis (septic arthritic) – Infectious arthritis spreads when there is infection in the synovial fluid and tissues of a joint. It is usually caused by bacteria, but could also be caused by fungi or viruses. Bacteria, fungi or viruses may spread, and infect the joint. Most susceptible people are those who already have some form of arthritis and develop an infection that travels in the bloodstream.
Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) – Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is a type of arthritis that affects a person aged 16 or less. JRA can be various forms of arthritis; it basically means that a child has it.
