“may i know the difference of article arthritis & the osteoarthritis? ”
Yes you “may.”
If I could figure out what you were talking about, I might be able to help you.
Could you mean articular arthritis? that is a nebulous term that is somewhat redundant because literally it means arthritis in joint.
I think you ought to ask the physician who diagnosed you most recently for explanation and information.
I’ve never heard of “article arthritis” before. Maybe you meant articular which means joint, but “arthritis” itself means inflammation of the joints.
Osteoarthritis means a degenerative inflammatory disease of the joints, which involves thinning of the articular cartilages that cushions the end of the bones. This will cause the bones gritting each other, which will cause pain. Some researches have found that taking glucosamine supplement helps to reduce the pain and discomfort.
