What is more dangerous synovitis of the knee joint or arthritis of the knee joint?
Synovitis of the knee joint is typically considered more dangerous than arthritis of the knee joint. Synovitis is an inflammation of the synovial membrane lining the joint, leading to pain, swelling, and potential damage to the joint structures if left untreated. Arthritis, on the other hand, is a broader term encompassing various joint conditions, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, which can also cause pain and inflammation but may progress more slowly and be managed with treatments like medication and physical therapy. In severe cases, both synovitis and arthritis can lead to joint degeneration and disability.
Can arthritis cause an elevated white blood count in felines?
This will depend upon the type of arthritis the cat has. In general, degenerative arthritis (the kind your cat gets because he/she is older) should not cause an elevated white blood cell count. However, there is infectious arthritis which would cause an elevated white blood cell count - this would be a good reason for a veterinarian to carefully collect some joint fluid for analysis, because infection in the joints is both painful and difficult to treat.
