Knee arthritis : ウィキペディア英語版 | Knee arthritis Arthritis is inflammation in the joints or area of the body where two bones come together.〔(MHC report ), The arthritis Association〕 Joints are responsible for the movement of body parts. It is a condition that can be experienced all over the body or in a specific area. The types range from those related to wear and tear of cartilage, such as osteoarthritis to those associated with inflammation resulting from an overactive immune system, such as rheumatoid arthritis.〔(Arthritis Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis and Treatment Information on MedicineNet.com ), Retrieved on 2010-01-22.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Knee Arthritis )〕 The one part of the body that is most affected by arthritis is the knee and it can suffer from both rheumatoid or osteoarthritis. ==Rheumatoid arthritis==
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), is a chronic inflammatory disorder that most typically begins in the small joints in your hands and feet.〔(Rheumatoid Arthritis - Mayoclinic.com ), Retrieved on 2010-01-22.〕 However, the course can begin with other nonspecific symptoms, such as tiredness. After attacking the smaller joints of the body, RA often progresses into larger joints, such as the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees. Symptoms include joint pain, swelling, red and puffy hands, and fatigue. RA degrades the lining of the joints and causes swelling that is painful and can lead to joint deformity in the affected joints. Rheumatoid arthritis tends to worsen over time. Though there is no permanent cure, the course of the disease can be modified so that the damage is less, the patient is more comfortable and the patient can continue to engage in and enjoy daily activities. Treatment is most effective when it is begun as early as possible, before the process of deformity is far progressed, but some relief can be offered by treatment at any stage.
