There are so many different types of Arthritis and each one presents differently. Symptoms can come on suddenly or you can feel them slowly build over time.
Arthritis develops in your joints, so you may feel stiffness in your back, knees, shoulders, elbows, or other joints upon waking or after sitting for long periods of time. You may experience swelling or hear popping and cracking sounds in your joints. Swelling can come on suddenly or develop slowly over extended use.
Pain when moving, twisting, or putting weight/pressure on any of your joints may be another sign. You may also struggle opening jars, holding objects, opening doors, or other daily tasks that you used to be able to perform easily.
Accompanied with many of the symptoms above, you may also feel extremely tired, weak, or swollen areas may be red and warm/hot to the touch.
