Arthritis is a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide, and it can be a debilitating condition that can severely limit a person’s ability to perform daily activities. It is characterized by inflammation and pain in the joints, and it can be caused by a variety of factors. In the United States, 24% of all adults, or 58.5 million people, have arthritis. It is a leading cause of work disability, with annual costs for medical care and lost earnings of $303.5 billion.
There are many causes of arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and gout, which all have different causes but which lead to a similar end results. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder in which the body’s immune system attacks the joints, while psoriatic arthritis is associated with the skin condition psoriasis. Gout is caused by a buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints. These are all roads that can lead to arthritis, but the result is the same: loss of cartilage or cushion in the joint.
The most common type of arthritis is osteoarthritis, which is caused by wear and tear on the joints over time. This can be due to a variety of factors, such as aging, joint injuries, obesity, and genetics. Osteoarthritis is more common in older adults, but it can also affect younger people who have had joint injuries or who engage in repetitive activities that put stress on the joints. Think of it like the tread on a car tire. The tread will slowly wear down as you drive on the tires. The quality of the tire can impact how fast the tread wears down (think genetics), the driving style will affect longevity (such as someone who has a lead foot and brakes hard) and the number of miles in a period of times that you put on the tires will also affect treadwear. Do you put 20,000 miles a year or 2,000 miles a year on the tires? Lastly, there can be some potholes along the way that create damage to the tire tread as well. This analogy carries over fairly well when thinking of a joint. Your genetics, age, weight, livelihood and injuries along the way all lead to wear and tear on the joint causing loss of cartilage. Your joints have cartilage, meniscus, and labrum that act as a cushion so the bones don’t rub and grind. Slowly over time, the cartilage can wear down which allow the bones to start rubbing or you can get defects in the cartilage that can create pain, inflammation, and stiffness.
Unfortunately, there is no cure for arthritis, though there are several treatment options available, including medications, physical therapy, and dietary supplements. One supplement that has gained popularity recently for its potential benefits in helping patients with arthritis is JointLife by BlueFire Supplements.
