Best Answer

No People with Arthritis often use heat to help alleviate pain and help loosen stiff joints. (There is nothing like a good hot shower if you are suffering from arthritic pain) The way that the Gas is burnt to make the heat may have an effect on health as some gas heater are influenced. this means that the oxides from the gas remain in the house. these can have an effect on general health and general health in turn can effect the severity of arthritis. However there is at present no direct link between gas heaters and arthritis.
