What is arthritis?

Rheumatoid joint inflammation is an immune system infection that is ongoing. It occurs in joints on both sides of your body and is different from other types of arthritis. You may develop symptoms of pain and inflammation.

Uncontrolled inflammation can damage the cartilage that normally acts as a cushion in your joints. Over time this causes your joints to deform. Eventually your bone wears away on its own. This causes your joints to contract (your body’s attempt to protect itself from constant irritation).

Special cells in your immune system (your body’s infection-fighting system) help with this process. These substances build up in the joints and travel around your body causing symptoms. Rather than affecting your joints, arthritis sometimes affects other parts of your body, which may include: Your eyes, your mouth, your skin, your lungs, and your heart.
