Inflammatory arthritis includes a group of arthritis accompanied by joint pain, swelling, warmth, and tenderness in the joints, and morning stiffness that lasts for an hour. Because most of the inflammatory forms of arthritis are systemic, symptoms related to inflammation may occur in other parts of the body, including skin rashes, eye inflammation, hair loss, dry mouth, and fever. The increased number of cells and inflammatory substances within the joint can irritate it, in turn, wearing down the cartilage and swelling of the synovium. This activity reviews the etiology, presentation, evaluation, and management of inflammatory arthritis and reviews the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating, diagnosing, and managing the condition.
