Return To Arthritis FAQ Archive   Search the Archives What causes arthritis? Answered By Alex Trenor, Editor Arthritis is caused by a variety of factors including joint instability, age-related changes, altered biochemistry, hormonal factors, environmental factors and psychological factors. Stress can also cause arthritis since stress disrupts the body’s hormonal balance. Stress-induced cortisone deficiency can be a factor in some forms of arthritis. When body systems release adrenalin and cortisone, it weakens the immune system. As a result, bacteria and other detrimental organisms spread throughout the body. --- permission must be obtained from editor Alex Trenor to re-publish --- Arthritis Cat Treatment
