Arthritis 101
You may wonder if your parent or grandparent has arthritis if you will also develop it.
The answer is that some types of arthritis can be genetic.
Research has shown that osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis can be genetic. However, it is important to note that this does not mean you will be diagnosed with arthritis, but you could have an increased risk of developing the condition.
The truth is, regardless of family history, you may never get arthritis. And conversely, you may have no family history of arthritis and still develop it.
If you have been diagnosed with arthritis, you should know there are options to control the pain and inflammation. Specialty Pain Management can help.
