Arthritis is a common health issue that affects millions of patients suffering from arthritis struggle with severe joint pain and nearly half of all adults with arthritis experience persistent pain more than 100 types of arthritis have been identified two of the most common types are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
