Do you have arthritis?

Are your joints always hurting? Does your blood sugar glucose go down easier? Do your joints sometimes get inflammed and bruise without even hurting it? If these symptoms don't go away in about a month or two, you should get tested for arthritis. It will also depend on what type of arthritis you have. They will probably do a blood test and then an x ray of the joints that hurt.The most common is idiopathic arthritis, which nobody is sure of why it happens or caused. The second most common is rhumetoid arthritis. This is found in children and young teens mostly(Juvenile Rhumetoid arthritis (JRA), but also adults. This is different because unlike idiopathic, rhumetoid arthritis is caused by the immune system fighting off tissue that make the joints swell and hurt ALOT!!!
