Most forms of arthritis are chronic and incurable illnesses there are treatments available to reduce inflammation caused by them and to reduce pain as well as disease modifying drugs that stop the immune system reacting in a destructive manner. It pays for people that have any form of Arthritis to keep reasonably fit and keep an eye on the progress of the disease in their joints. it also pays for them to take it a litle easy on their joints in order to have them last longer.
There are over 100 types of arthritis, the most common being osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. While there is no known cure for either, the "itis" part of the word indicates inflammation, for which ibuprofin or acetaminophen is often recommended. Please seek a doctor's recommendation before self-medicating.
