171 Types of Arthritis

 

Arthritis is a broad term for many painful conditions and I think that most people would be very surprised to know that "Arthritis" is not one, or even just two, of the more well known conditions. In fact there are over 150 types of arthritis, 171 to be exact. In our future free Newsletters we will concentrate on writing up a short description of one type from the following list of "Types of Arthritis".
