Hi

I am a researcher and a women working with the problems involved in Arthritis. It is not rare we have all heard about it but do we do anything unless some one of us gets its.

Did you know that there were more that 105 types of arthritis because the word ' arthritis' in many peoples eyes happens to old people only.

Its not true, arthritis can happen at any age... its has no perfect etiology but it is true that is more in women than in men. Mostly men get it when they pass fifty years of age..

Some say arthritis is in the blood others in the bones, but the truth is that it is in the blood and then affects not only the bones but also the muscles of the body.

There are also types of arthritis that affect all the systems of the body, some just hte bones while others just muscles.

Neverthenless, arthritis should not be ignored and treatment should be taken for it regularly. Poeple, usually young ones think that they don't need medicines for muscle aches and pain in the knee, you are right and you are wrong... If the pain is acquanted with swelling, wait no more and go see your doctor. If you find there is only pain that is relived by rest, worry less, take some rest and take some treatment for a specific period of time and it will go away but if you aggiate a painful bone... if you put more pressure on it... then you may require long term help and the problem may increase....

Arthritis as i said is very common and many people require help and direction regarding this disease....
