Can you get arthritis at the age 2?

Answer 1

to the best of my knowledge, arthritis is a symptom of a disease process. curing the disease, normally eliminates the Arthritis. some diseases are known to cause arthritis, and some are not yet known. detecting the causative disease is an ongoing science, and is extremely difficult. if no disease is acquired, there is no arthritis; if an arthritis causing disease is acquired, arthritis can develop. "arthritis" is a much debated subject, so this opinion is not "exact science".

It is at this point not yet understood what precisely causes most forms of arthritis. However. Treatments are being developed that help control the pain damage and deformity involved with these diseases.

Answer 2

A person can be suffering from arthritis the day they are born In many cases arthritis comes with the wear and tearr of age and traumatic damage.

I for example showed symptoms before I was 7 years old.

Then there are the inflammatory forms of arthritis like rheumatoid arthritis and these can come on at any age favouring women at a rate of 2 to1. arthritis gets its name because of its effect on joints however the harm does by the more then 100 forms of arthritis affects many other parts of the body and its organs.
