(Health-NewsWire.Net, May 22, 2015 ) Orlando, FL -- Arthritis symptoms may vary from one person to another. However, most sufferers experience two common symptoms and they are inflammation and stiffness.
Experts revealed that learning about arthritis symptoms can significantly help get the right diagnosis. According to them, there are two possible reasons why swelling takes place; one is called synovtis and the other is effusion.
"Synovum refers to the swelling of the lining of the joint, while effusion pertains to the increase in the synovial fluid in volume," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
According to The Arthritis Foundation, inflammation involves an active process. Joint swelling is often caused by the increase in the blood flow. Joint fluid is also accumulated around the joint due to the inflammatory materials, and this significantly adds to swelling. The type of swelling varies depending on the type of arthritis suffered by a patient.
Experts suggest that patients should learn about the symptoms they may be suffering from, in addition to stiffness and inflammation. Doing it will help their health care providers determine the type of arthritis they are suffering from.
Pain, swelling, stiffness and difficulty moving a joint are the most common symptoms of arthritis. Pain may come and go and may occur while moving or resting. Swelling, on the other hand, can affect the skin over the joint affected. Patients can also suffer from stiffness that often takes place in the morning or when sitting for a long time. Difficulty moving a joint is also a symptom and patients who experience this often find it difficult or painful to move or get up from the chair.
"According to experts, knowing these symptoms can significantly help doctors identify the extent and type of arthritis. Patients should ensure that they take note of certain details such as how frequently the symptoms take place in a week or what is stiff and swollen," added O'Sullivan.
Doctors who suspect the presence of arthritis normally perform some tests to determine the range of motion in the joints of the patient. If there is pain while the patient is moving the joint back and forth, it can mean there is a possible arthritis symptom.
It is imperative for sufferers to get the right diagnosis as it is one of the best ways to also get the right treatment. There are many pain relief options available today, and most of them really work for several patients. There are pain relief drugs such as NSAIDs and there are also natural alternatives such as glucosamine supplements (http://www.amazon.com/Glucosamine-Sulfate-Chondroitin-Supplement-Turmeric/dp/B00DUMO9X4/).
