What is Wrist Arthritis?

Arthritis of the wrist is when one or more of the wrist become inflamed and leads to swelling, pain, and stiffness.  It can make execution of daily activities very difficult since it limits movement. 

Types of Wrist التهاب المفاصل 

Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are two types of arthritis that most commonly occurs in the wrist.  Osteoarthritis progressively wears away the smooth articular cartilage covering the joints.  Rheumatoid arthritis is when the body’s immune system attacks the synovium (tissue lining joints and tendons responsible for nourishment) and leads to degeneration of the bones and soft tissue.  Unprotected joints will cause the bones the grind together and is very painful.
