Arthritis

The article, Top 10 Things That Don't Cause Arthritis, discusses the many myths and misinformations about arthritis. There are many misconceptions made about the disease, along with misconceptions about things that cause the disease. Arhtritis is a very generic term, there are hundreds of types of arthritis. For example, the most common are osteoarthritis and  rheumatoid arthritis. The article clears up some believed causes of the disease such as, "cracking your knuckles will cause arthritis." False, it will not cause arthritis. Other things are poor posture, overuse of a joint, and bad diets are not causes of arthritis although many believe they are. The article was very informative. Before I read it, I thought arthritis could definitely be caused by using your joints too much, cracking knuckles, and poor posture. After reading, I now know that almost all of the so-called causes of arthritis really are not causes at all. People just assume things, when in fact, research has shown that it is not true. I suggest this article be read by many people, it would really clear up a lot of misconceptions.
