Definition:
a disease marked by inflammation and pain in the joints, muscles, or fibrous tissue
Causes:
destructive joint disease that is caused by inflammation in the tissue that normally produces lubrication fluid for joints. When this tissue remains inflamed, it leads to deformity by loosening joint ligaments and to joint destruction by eroding away cartilage and bone
Symptoms:
Fatigue, Joint pain, Joint tenderness, Joint swelling, Joint redness
Joint warmth, Joint stiffness and loss of joint range of motion
Prevention:
Avoid foods high in sugar, salt, and fat. Exercise. Choose a combination of aerobic exercise and strength training. Strength training can reduce bone loss, which is a potentially serious side effect of rheumatism
