A recent report by Carol & Richard Eustice, in About.com is bringing into context the various different types of Arthritis, the disease now covers over 100 different diseases and conditions.

These include the common types that most people encounter like arthritis, osteoarthritis, gout, rheumatoid arthritis, and fibromyalgia.

The disease which is diagnosed in 1 in 5 Americans is expected to increase as the population ages.

Carol and Richard in their report are concerned that the level of information given to people who think they might have some symptoms however minor needs to be given more priority, as early diagnosis can lead to better control.

With the number of variations in the disease they consider early symptoms do not always give a clear diagnosis and may cause overlap between the various types.
