Rheumatoid arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis is a troubling condition that results in chronic inflammation of the joints found in the human body. It is basically an auto-immune disorder or a disease where the tissues of the human body tend to be attacked by the immune system of the body itself. The patients who suffer from this problem are the ones who commonly suffer from inflammation and even with injuries to the different other parts of their body. This is one condition that can also have an adverse effect on the other organs of the human body. Most of the times, it is called systematic illness.

Osteoarthritis

A common form of arthritis among people world, Osteoarthritis, is a chronic condition wherein the surface that cushions our joints actually tears down leading to immense pain. Known as the cartilage, its rupture causes a situation where in our bones get in contact with each other and commonly rubs against one another. This scenario leads to slight stiffness, pain and in some cases- acute pain owing to loss of joint movement factors. Common Symptoms include soreness or slight stiffness in the joint area causing physical limitations impacting movement of the joints.

The median nerve is a nerve running from the forearm to the palm of the hand and when it gets commonly pressed or squeezed unintentionally at the wrist region, it gives rise to uncomfortable situations like numbness or pain. Such compression occurs on account of irritated tendons. Sensations that happen at the fingers or the thumb are controlled by the median nerve. As a result, the hand and the wrist region may be impacted by pain, numbness or certain weakness that stretches up to the region of the arm.

This is a serious medical condition that impacts the facial muscles of an individual. While most causes are still limited to inflammation, in many other cases it occurs owing to viral infection. Under Bell’s Palsy, an inflammation develops around facial nerves as the said nerve passes from the skull to the brain. As the nerve passes toward the skull, it may be compressed. The muscles that supply these nerves also stop functioning. A common weakness in the face is a common symptom of the disease. It can even impact taste related perceptions.

A medical condition where certain disorders in the brain curtail full development leading to impacting usual movements of an individual severely, it is a non progressive brain disorder. It is commonly known as the condition of chronic child disability. Several reasons such as poor supply of oxygen to the brain before a child’s delivery or after the child’s birth, injuries sustained during birth or delivery and common infections are leading causes. The condition is a major concern for children and as many as 11000 children in USA contract this disorder every year.
