Arthritis is a common health condition affecting over 50 million American adults. Though there are many different types of arthritis, the most common form of arthritis is osteoarthritis. This type of arthritis often affects older adults.
Osteoarthritis develops when the cartilage in your joints wears away over time, leading to joint pain and inflammation. Arthritis can be quite painful and often makes it difficult to perform everyday activities.
