Arthritis

Arthritis is a condition that is characterized by a painful and sometimes debilitating inflammation of the joints. One type of arthritis is caused by infection, however the cause of the other type, rheumatoid arthritis, remains uncertain. The inflamed joints caused by arthritis may be painful, tender and warm to the touch.

Over forty million people are afflicted with arthritis in the United States alone, with women far outnumbering men. Many treatment options are available for arthritis sufferers ranging from simple over-the-counter pain medications such as Tylenol and Advil to more sophisticated prescription drugs like Vioxx and Celebrex.
