Some types of arthritis run in families. Having a parent or sibling with the condition may increase the likelihood of developing certain forms of arthritis.
The risk of many types of arthritis, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout, generally increases with age.
Women are more likely than men to develop rheumatoid arthritis, while gout is more common among men.
A previous joint injury, such as one caused by sports or an accident, can increase the risk of arthritis in that joint later in life.
Carrying excess weight can place additional stress on joints, particularly the knees, hips, and spine.
This analysis specifically focuses on patients who were admitted through the emergency department.
Patients matching the selected criteria were recorded as receiving medications including Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Lipitor, Paracetamol, and Penicillin.
