The exact cause of this inflammatory condition is not known, but it is believed to be caused by an attack on the synovium (tissue that lines the joints) by the body's immune system. The upper cervical spine can be damaged by the inflammation that is caused by rheumatoid arthritis. This disease is three times more common in women than in men and usually occurs between the ages of 20 and 50. Just like the gradual destruction of other joints in the body, several joints between the base of the skull and uppermost vertebral bodies in the cervical spine are very susceptible to damage from rheumatoid arthritis. Symptoms Some common symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis are pain and swelling in the smaller joints of your hands and feet, overall aching and stiffness, loss of motion in the affected joints, fatigue and low-grade fever. Small lumps, called rheumatoid nodules may appear on the skin of your elbow and on your feet and heels, though they usually aren't painful. The chances that the spine is damaged in someone with rheumatoid arthritis increase as they have the disease for a longer period of time. Studies show that people who have had rheumatoid arthritis for more than 10 years have at least a 60% chance of having some degree of cervical spine involvement.

Arthritis What is arthritis? The term arthritis refers to about 120 different diseases that can affect the joints, muscles and other soft tissues. The three most common forms are osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis , also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common type of arthritis, affecting an estimated 21 million adults in this country. Commonly referred to as a "wear and tear" arthritis, osteoarthritis involves destruction of the cartilage, the cushion or shock absorber on the ends of the bones. Fibromyalgia is a disease that causes pain and stiffness in the tissues that support and move the bones and joints. It is a common disease that affects approximately 2 percent of the U.S. population or about 5 million people. Widespread pain and localized tender points occur in the muscles and tendons especially those of the neck, spine, shoulders and hips. Other common symptoms include significant fatigue, difficulty concentrating and sleep disturbance. Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease that primarily affects the lining of the joint. An important feature of this inflammatory illness is that the body's own immune system targets its own tissue as an enemy. Joint swelling over a long period of time can lead to deformity and loss of function in the joint. Because rheumatoid arthritis affects the entire body, many people also experience fatigue, fever and a general sense of feeling unwell. Rheumatoid arthritis affects over 2 million Americans.

Skip navigation Read more... Arthritis Arthritis is a painful condition that affects your joints and bones. The membrane that lines joints, like your elbows and knuckles, becomes inflamed making them stiff and swollen. Arthritis is a common condition that affects over eight million people in the UK. What causes arthritis and who can get it? There are many different forms of arthritis. The most common form is osteoarthritis, a degenerative condition (a condition that slowly gets worse over time) usually associated with old age. As you get older, natural wear and tear of your body can cause the cartilage between your bones to slowly waste away leaving your bones to rub together. This makes your joints very stiff and painful and can make moving around difficult. Not everyone gets arthritis in old age. Some people inherit the condition genetically from their parents. Some other things can increase your risk of developing arthritis: Having a job that puts strain on your joints and bones or involves repeated movement of one or two joints Damage to your joints or bones from an injury Young people can get arthritis too but it is usually a different type of arthritis. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common kind that affects young people. It is similar to, but not the same as, rheumatoid arthritis that affects some adults.
