Is arthritis hereditary?
Answered By Alex Trenor, Editor
There have been studies that are concentrated on finding the causes of arthritis. These study show that genetic component can affect in the arthritis symptoms. Some types of arthritis has a strong link with genetics. These are arthritis in the spine and gouty arthritis. The others have a weak link in genetics.
On the other hand, the study explained that arthritis attacks more on the older people. However, patients commonly get their arthritis in several ways. Doctors have implied that a hereditary issue has a lesser percentage of risks when it comes to triggering arthritis.
Most of the causes of arthritis are sports injuries, old age, joint overuse, and other personal risk.
