13 Effective Remedies Against Arthritis

Arthritis is a type of joint disorder that involves inflammation of a single joint or several joints. The disease plagues approximately 350 million people worldwide, with osteoarthritis being the most common type. Arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the United States, with over 20 million people affected by it.  Arthritis can be triggered by severe bouts of inflammation, which occurs when chemicals are released from the body into the bloodstream or damaged tissue areas. The chemical release eventually aggravates the nerves, which results in a great deal of pain. Rheumatoid arthritis can even cause disfiguration of the hands.    We're going to discuss 13 various tips to help alleviate the discomfort and take preventative measures against the disease.
