According to the Mayo Clinic, arthritis is the medical term for joint pain. Rheumatism is muscular pain brought about by inflammation and infection in the muscular tissues. Did you know that about 52 million people in the USA alone are suffering from some sort of arthritis, or joint pain? Most of them have a feeling that this is one of the occupational hazards, which one has to bear the moment one starts getting old. But that is not necessarily true. Arthritis can be caused due to any injury or to some disease than is going to include pain, stiffness and swelling. It can hit you at any age, especially when the joint has got inflamed. Inflammation is the body's natural reaction to any portion of the body which has undergone some sort of muscular tissue trauma due to injury or infection. Arthritis is going to affect the musculoskeletal system of your body, especially the joints. This is then going to cause slow and steady disability and stiffness, and people over the age of 50 are more vulnerable to such problems.
