\nOsteoarthritis\/ Rheumatoid Arthritis
\nOsteomyelitis and rheumatoid arthritis are two of the most
\ncommon musculoskeletal conditions affecting individuals across
\nthe United States. Distinguished by cartilage degeneration and
\nbony overgrowth, osteomyelitis affects approximately 13.9% of
\nadults who are \u226525 years of age.
\nRheumatoid arthritis, unlike osteoarthritis, is an autoimmune
\ncondition characterized by inflammation, usually in bilateral joint,
\nand systemic features, such as fatigue and fever (Dewing et al.,
\n2012). Rheumatoid arthritis sufferers are typically younger than
\nthose who develop osteomyelitis, with rheumatoid arthritis
\noccurring between 20 \u2013 30 years of age, and the incidence
\npeaking at 35 to 50 years of age (Dewing et al., 2012)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
