Malfunctioning Immune System
Another common type of this condition is rheumatoid arthritis. Its symptoms are the same as osteoarthritis. However, the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis occur in flares and stops for a time. This condition is caused by an immune system that mistakenly attacks the membrane that covers the joints and causes inflammation. This then leads to damage to cartilage and the joints themselves. Psoriatic arthritis is another type of arthritis that is caused by a malfunctioning immune system. Symptoms include psoriasis, a skin disease, swelling of hands, lower back pain, and foot pain. These autoimmune diseases can be caused by genetic, environmental factors, and unhealthy habits.High Uric Acid Level
