(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 28, 2015 ) Orlando, FL -- Joint pain is one of the most common symptoms of having osteoarthritis and other arthritic conditions. Individuals who suffer from pain often experience a reduced quality of life and immobility. Unfortunately, it is not only arthritic conditions that cause this, but also certain infections.
Healthcare professionals reveal the common infections that usually cause joint pain. Staphylococcus bacteria is often the common cause of joint infections, but viruses and fungi can also result in arthritis and joint pain. Infection-related arthritis often affects the hips and knees of adults.
"The common infections that cause joint pain are the Nongonococcal infections, gonococcal infection, tick-related infections, fungal infections and viral infections," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
The leading cause of infectious arthritis is the sstaphylococcus bacteria. While anyone can be affected by bacterial joint infections, there are those that are at an increased risk, such as people with an artificial joint, a chronic joint disorder or with diabetes.
Joint infections, otherwise known as septic arthritis, often develop when the bacteria in the blood starts invading the joint. Reactive arthritis also develops weeks after the occurrence of a bacterial infection. Experts believe that reactive arthritis develops as a byproduct of the inflammatory response of the body to the initial infection. Bacteria such as Campylobacter, Salmonella and Chlamydia, are usually associated with reactive arthritis.
Gonococcal arthritis, which is caused by gonorrhea, is usually common in individuals who are sexually active, especially in women. Gonorrhea, which is a sexually transmitted disease, can spread from the blood to the joints. Gonococcal arthritis is often caused by widespread inflammation, which usually takes place when the body is trying to fight the infection.
In the United States, the most common illness that is tick-related is called Lyme disease. This condition is caused by tick bites and can cause arthritic symptoms. If Lyme disease is left untreated, it can result in chronic joint pain. Illnesses such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever and babesiosis, which cause flu-like symptoms, can be complicated by joint pain. Unfortunately, they can also rapidly progress and can place one in a life-threatening situation if appropriate treatment is not properly administered. Fungal and viral infections are also among the conditions that cause joint pain.
The good news is that there are several remedies that are believed to be helpful for individuals who are suffering from joint pain. Aside from or in addition to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs, sufferers also resort to natural remedies such as glucosamine supplements. Glucosamine supplements that also contain natural ingredients such as turmeric, MSM and chondroitin are most recommended by experts (http://www.amazon.com/Glucosamine-Sulfate-Chondroitin-Supplement-Turmeric/dp/B00DUMO9X4).
