It refers to more than 100 different types of arthritis conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, gout, pseudogout, psoriatic arthritis, and fibromyalgia to name a few. Arthritis is a term that encompasses over 100 kinds of rheumatic diseases that affect an estimated 15%% of the U.S. population (Lawrence et al 1998).
