Last year I was diagonised with advanced arthritis of my left knee. No bad pain but swelling and aching at times but walking is effected. Have pain and anti inflamation meds but 2 Advil seem to work better. Had shots in my knee 6 months ago and find that I don't have all that crunching and rubbing in my knee.
Don't know how RA differs from regular arthritis. Was planning to ask my Dr. on my next appointment but will gladly like to learn from those who have it. May in Jersey
