Best Answer

It is not known what exactly causes rheumatoid arthritis We do know that the destruction of joints and other tissue that takes place in this disease is the result of the immune system mistakenly attacking cartilage and other connective tissue resulting in joint damage and many other problems. To add to the confusion there are nearly 150 different types of Arthritis.
