Introduction:

Joints are the junction for the two bones and are such a characteristic of the skeletal system that allows our body to give a sense of freedom. Joints are the location where the bones can move. There are various types of joints. The classification of joints is based on their degree of movement. Some joints can move in just one or two directions e.g., elbow and knee joints, while some joints have the privilege of moving in whatever directions we want them to move e.g., Shoulder Girdle joints. Basically, nature has given every joint, even every part of the body, its importance. The regretful part is that we are not capable of paying the verity of nature that nature or God has given us in the form of our body. We do not take care of this gift. As a result, when our limbs got damaged, then we seek medical assistance. And how cool is that nature has still shown its goodwill and provide us with natural anti-inflammatory herbs. So, we can make our natural system of the body keep working in an efficient way. Giving is the greatest characteristic of nature, and God as it does not make any difference in its treasure.

Inflammation in joints:

Talking about a fact i.e., excess of anything, is a disease. So, if I define inflammation of joints in simple words is that there is fluid in the joints, which is necessary for the proper functioning of joints. But if the number of fluid increases, it will cause inflammation or effusion of joints and becomes a condition. In terms of medicine, this disease is called arthritis, in which joints become stiff, and if they do not treat, the patient properly may become handicapped. Now there are various types of arthritis based on the cause of deficient substances in the body.

The inflammation of joints is directly related to our immune system. The ideal function of the immune system is to invade germ cells. When they start attacking tissues instead of germ cells, and cause pain and stiffness in joints. Inflammation may also occur due to some injury, obesity, heredity, or uric acid accumulation in joints. Prior to the inflammation due to increased fluid in joints, there may also occur deficiency of fluid and cause osteoarthritis. In this condition, the bones become frictionless, and the bones start rubbing on each other and cause pain. So, the excess and deficiency of fluid in joints than a normal amount is a condition of arthritis and osteoarthritis respectively.

Talking about symptoms of inflammation in the body, which can be physically seen on the body. The inflamed joints become red. The swelling take place due to the accumulation of excess fluid in joints. Heat continuously radiates from the joint area, and this all is characterized by pain.
