While the term arthritis is
widely used to describe many
unexplained aches and pains
in the muscles and joints, it
literally means inflammation
of a joint. Inflammation,
which shows itself as heat,
swelling, redness, and pain,
is the body’s way of reacting
when something is damaging
body tissue. But in arthritis, it
is the inflammation itself that
is doing the damage and more
than 200,000 North Carolin
ians are victims of this
disease.

Thdre are five common but
different forms of arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthrisit is the
most serious, the most pain
ful, and the most crippling
form of arthritis. It primarily
attacks the joints but can also
affect the lungs, skin, blood
vessels, muscles, heart, and
even the eyes. In children it
occurs in a form known as
juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
Osteoarthritis, also called
degenerative joint disease, is
principally a wear-and-tear
disease of the joints which
comes with getting older. It is
usually mild and is not
generally inflammatory but
can sometimes produce con
siderable pain. Milk to severe
disability may develop gra
dually.
Ankylosing spondylitis is a
chronic inflammatory arthritis
of the spine and affects men
ten times as often as women.
It usually begins in the teens
or early twenties, but is rarely
seen in persons over age
thirty.
Rheumatic fever is an
acute disease which follows a
bacterial streptococcus in
fection and is frequently
damaging to the heart. It is
most common to children
between the ages of five and
fifteen. It may cause inflam
mation in the joints which
subsides quickly without crip
pling.
Gout, also known as gouty
arthritis, is an inherited
disease which most often
affects the small joints,
especially the big toe. Most of
its victims are men.
it you have joint pain
consult your personal physi
cian for evaluation and
treatment. Early detection
and early treatment can
prevent most of the crippling
of this disease and new
therapies and many promis
ing new drugs are emc rging.
In North Carolina the number
of physicians specializing in
this area, called rheumatolo
gists, has increased from 5 in
1971 to 22 in 1977 and more
are being trained at the
state’s medical schools.
