What Is Arthritis?
Arthritis means joint inflammation, but it can be used to refer to a spectrum of more than 100 rheumatic diseases that can cause stiffness, pain, and also swelling in the joints. These diseases cannot only affect the joints, but also supporting structures such as bones, tendons, ligaments, muscles and some internal organs. Terry's arthritic pain can be classified under chronic pain because it ranges from mild to severe and can last weeks, months and years to come. The other classification of arthritis pain is under acute pain because it is temporary and lasts a few seconds or longer but slowly dissipates as healing occurs.
The chronic pain that Terry endures is also a major health problem in the U.S. There is a form of arthritis that affects some 40 million American peoiple and this pain can affect them on a daily basis. Osteoarthritis is by far the most common form of arthritis, which affects over 20 million Americans, while rheumatoid arthritis, which affects about 2.1 million Americans, is by far the most disabling form the disease.
What Causes The Pain In The Joint?
Terry would talk about the pain originating form somewhere in the inside of the joint. Several different sources are what actually casues the pain of arthritis. The first is inflammation of the synovial membrane (tissue that lines the joints), the tendons, or the ligaments, muscle strain, and fatigue. Moreover, a combination of these factors contributes to the overall intensity of the pain. Terry probably suffers from almost all of the associated inflammatory areas. What is the degree of pain you suffer from arthritis?
The pain of arthritis can vary from person to person. There are certain factors that contribute to the pain, which includes swelling within the joints, the amount of heat or redness present and even damage that has occurred within the joint. There are also certain activities that affect pain differently like for terry just getting out of bed is bothersome and for others prolonged pain comes after prolonged use of the joint.

There happens to be a handful of organic substances that can reduce some of the symptoms of arthritis. Below are a few examples.
