∙ 13y agoold and young people suffer from Arthritis because they both tend to move their joints alot and the cartilage tends to rub away and the bones then rub together and then you get alot of inflamation around the affected area. Its best for you to get diagnosed before it becomes worse so if u have an inflamed area better get it checked out because it will get worse.
