Disease/Condition Glossary
Arthritis: It is a condition that causes swelling of one or more joints resulting in pain and stiffness of joints that worsen over time. There are different types of arthritis, of which osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are the most common types. The arthritis symptoms include joint pain, stiffness, redness, tenderness, swelling in and around joints, and reduced movement of joints. The risk of arthritis increases with age, obesity, previous joint injury, or family history. Proper medication, physiotherapy, or sometimes surgery may help reduce arthritis symptoms and enhance the quality of life.
Rheumatoid arthritis: It is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting various joints (hands and feet). In this long-term condition, our body's immune system attacks its own tissue (including joints).
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS): It is a rare type of arthritis that affects the spine and larger joints, causing extreme pain and stiffness.
