It takes place when the immune system malfunctions and targets the synovium, which is the lining of the joints. The condition typically affects the same joint on both sides of the body, such as both hands or both knees, and is most frequent in the hands, knees, or ankles.

Shoulder Arthritis

Simply defined, arthritis is inflammation of one or more of your joints. Arthritic shoulder can be the cause of pain and stiffness during your activities of daily living.

Anatomy

Your shoulder is made up of three bones: your upper arm bone (humerus), your shoulder blade (scapula), and your collarbone (clavicle). The head of your upper arm bone fits into a rounded socket in your shoulder blade. This socket is called the glenoid. The bones never come in contact with each other. This is due to the presence of a smooth slippery substance on the inside of each bone, which acts like a cushion. It is called cartilage. The inside of the joint is lined by a thin membrane called the synovial membrane. This membrane releases a fluid that lubricates the cartilage and reduces friction. A combination of muscles and tendons keeps your arm bone centered in your shoulder socket. These tissues are called the rotator cuff.

Description

Five major types of arthritis typically affect the shoulder.

Osteoarthritis

Also known as “wear-and-tear” arthritis, it is a condition that destroys the smooth covering (articular cartilage) of bone. As the cartilage wears away, it becomes frayed and rough, and the protective space between the bones decreases. During movement, the bones of the joint rub against each other, causing pain.

I hope you love yourself as well. See, you cannot really love anyone fully, deeply, and wholeheartedly unless you love yourself. Thank you, my friend @craftjuanita for this song and the time you spent mentoring young women about the importance of self love. Today I feel absolutely alive and well for the 1st time in over 40 years. Waking up with #Fibromyalgia and #rheumatoidarthritis every day feeling like your life energy was sucked out of you and that's before even facing the pain was a challenge. I turned 64 a little over a week ago and I feel today better than I did most days as a teenager. It's almost been 45 days since I started #activatrmystemscells with this #Amazing new technology.. It's not anti-aging it's reverse aging. I ran up and down my stairs all morning. I felt better since the first hour I #patched ! But today....those are my eye lashes. I only have on mascara, eyeliner, eyebrows but mine are growing in and a wee bit of concealer around my eyes. I have released some extra pounds, and my skin tags are fading. ❤️‍🩹 ❤️‍🩹 ❤️‍🩹 ❤️‍🩹 ❤️‍🩹 ❤️‍🩹 ❤️‍🩹 ❤️‍🩹 #arthritis #osteoarthritis #RA #rheumatoidarthritis #injuries #rheumatoidarthritiswarrior #Rheumatoid #fibromyalgia #fibromyalgiawarrior #Diabetes #fibromyalgiaawareness #igotthis #igotyou #HighBloodPressurre #congestiveheart #blooddisorder #itsBethDaniels #numberonejewel https://www.instagram.com/p/CnhbzkDLNL9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Current lockdown vibes. #lazy listening to my body more, trying to sleep more, not overdo it and remind myself that it’s ok to do nothing. I’m actually doing something for my body, giving it time to recover. 😴💪💙 #autoimmunewarrior #rheumatoidarthritiswarrior #rheumatoidarthritis #autoimmune #chronicfatigue #selfcare #rest #body #sleep #chill #lazyoaf #shoreditch #eastlondon #london #fashion #the_neon_hunter #LEPhotography #photography #outandabout #blogger #project #tumblr #insta #neon #iphoneography #shotonaniphone #shotoniphone12 (at Lazy Oaf) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKjCRcYlA7B/?igshid=10993dmh4ox87

“So even though I understand the reasoning and I also want people to stay safe I can’t help but feel disappointed. It’s frustrating when you feel like waiting is all you ever do. — But today I’m going to be sad that I have a lot more waiting to do and tomorrow I will focus on the positive things again.” This is a couple lines from this newest blog post that I didn’t even plan on writing today after getting some frustrating news from pain management. https://katiesierra.blogspot.com/2020/06/how-much-longer_12.html?m=1 ________________________________________ #butyoudontlooksick #spoonie #chronicloveclub #sadsickgirls #sjogrenssyndrome #sjogrens #sjogrenswarrior #sjogrensawareness #rheumatoidarthritis #rheumatoidarthritiswarrior #chronicpainmemes #chronicpain #chronicillness #chronicpainwarrior #chronicpainsucks #chronicpainawareness #chronicillnesswarrior #chronicillnessawareness #juveniledegenerativediscdisease #degenerativediscdisease #spinalstenosis #backpain #backpainsucks (at Lexington, Kentucky) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBVdWMPnzm6/?igshid=9kly9nulwrsc

Meet: @pattysfitnessjourney this is @mywlstories I spent years not knowing how to keep weight off.  I became sedentary and turned down any adventure that my family would take on because I was too heavy and out of shape.  Then in 2011, I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and spent a year on a steroid and I put in even more weight.  However, in 2016, I met someone who taught me about food and as I changed my eating I put my RA into remission and I list 75 pounds.  Today I no longer turn down adventure and my story is “reclaiming my life.”  Let me tell you.  It feels great! ________________ WHAT DOES WLSTORIES MEAN TO YOU? I think a very important part of a successful weight loss journey is the community you surround yourself with. The more support you have, the easier it is to be successful.

So, this happened. Got my first shipment of #enbrel delivered via UPS. . I've been dealing with #chronicillnesses and their assorted life-threatening shenanigans since 2016. Then a few months ago I finally went to see a rheumatologist - all of my other specialists had told me to try that, since I had a growing list of abnormal test results and weird symptoms, that didn't fit into any of my other known diagnoses. . Well, sure enough, I got a new one: #rheumatoidarthritis. I'd been telling the pain clinic for 2 years, that I knew there was something other than my neuropathy pain? Unfortunately, I was right. . I tried Plaquenil for 3 months, and it didn't work at all. All my joints still show inflammation. So now, I try this. Enbrel. A self-injectable biological medication. It's a riskier choice for me than any other med I've tried so far, due to some potential complications with other illnesses I have. But it also has potential to REALLY help. . It was super scary to inject myself the first time - but, I did it. Next time will be WAY easier since now I know what to expect. So far, so good - NO redness or swelling at the injection spot, no sudden side effects. . So... once a week, every Wednesday morning, I'll shoot myself in the leg. Or, let Nurse Abby do it, since she thinks this is freaking rad, ;) And fingers crossed (gently!) that I start to see some improvement. 🖤🖤🖤 . #spoonielife #rheumatoidarthritiswarrior #rawarrior #chronicillnesslife #chronicpainlife #chronicallyill #chronicpainwarrior #spooniecommunity #spooniesisters #wherethetiredgirlsare #invisibleillness #butyoudontlooksick #autoimmunedisease #autoimmuneproblems #autoimmunewarrior (at Terrace Heights, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B07Mdiwhcka/?igshid=9f7ojuvrgbpo

Life stinks right now... I miss my babies, I miss school, I will be back soon. Living with an autoimmune disease is so hard on me. Someone recently told me something that sums it up; “I am constantly in pain. Yes, constantly. Every single second. The pain is there when I’m smiling. The pain is still there when I don’t have to talk about it. When I say “I’m fine”, I have a very different definition than you do”. Thanks for all the kind words those that have sent my way. I hurt inside because I miss my joy, my classroom. Hoping to be better soon. Thanks again for all your kind words, thoughts, and prayers. #fightthegoodfight #rheumatoidarthritiswarrior https://www.instagram.com/p/BxbyZs4Alu3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1o58mfvd9pzyj

Rheumatoid arthritis, or RA, is an autoimmune and inflammatory disease, which means that your immune system attacks healthy cells in your body by mistake, causing inflammation (painful swelling) in the affected parts of the body. RA mainly attacks the joints, usually many joints at once.

[alkalineholisticwellness]

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a potentially terminal autoimmune disease where the body starts to destroy itself because the immune system mistakenly attacks the joints One of the organs that RA can negatively affect the most is the heart. The disease can contribute to a 60 percent increase of heart disease or stroke a year after a person is diagnosed with RA, compared to someone without the disease. If you're among those who struggle with RA, you may consider using low-dose naltrexone (LDN), an inexpensive, safe and nontoxic alternative to pharmaceutical drugs. Physician reports have found that LDN possesses immunomodulating abilities and assisted some patients in refraining from taking their arthritis medication. Aside from LDN, natural pain relievers may help address the conditions of RA patients, or those experiencing pain in some form. These include: Curcumin — This compound found in turmeric root helps suppress symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis,4 assists with addressing autoimmune diseases,5 and possesses antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Boswellia — This herb, also known as boswellin or "Indian frankincense," promotes better blood flow in the joints, boosting their strength and flexibility,6 and helps combat inflammation7 among osteoarthritis patients. Ginger — This root vegetable was shown to be a good anti-inflammatory that can effectively relieve arthritis pain.8 If you want to incorporate ginger into your diet, steep fresh ginger in boiling water and drink it as tea, or grate it to mix in your vegetable juice. #ra #arthritis #rheumatoidarthritis #rheumatoidarthritiswarrior https://www.instagram.com/p/BsxEj2agWOm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4m4jcr4lwl7n

Sometimes my rheumatoid arthritis is a sea monster. It drags me down into a deep well of exhaustion. I move in slow motion. I feel like I’m drowning.
