There are some pretty horrible forms of arthritis. The most wide spread isOsteoarthritis, it can be the result of total destruction of Joints. Then there is gout, which is a form of arthritis that occurs as a result of too much uric acid in the system forming crystals that invade joints causing excruciating pain and damage it can also damage the kidney eventually.In my opinion it is probably Rheumatoid Arthritis which can strike at any age and totally destroy joints. affect eyesight, the lungs, the heart and even cause problems with the brain if you are unlucky. it is also a very painful condition. Seen from an overall perspective however it all depends on the particular case of arthritis and the person that has it.

It seems that it is a contest between Gouty arthritis and Rheumatoid arthritis. however any one of the many forms of arthritis can be just as bad as any of the others depending on its severity.
