Arthritis Fungoid

Fungoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease of the joints, which is characterized by the development of pain, swelling, skin hyperemia and joint hypotrophy. According to statistics, approximately 2% of people aged 50 to 60 years have fungal arthritis. Arthritis is a chronic disease that can last for several years. It is characterized by slow progression and periodic exacerbations. This lesion is a consequence of the activation of rheumatic factors, which usually affect the tissues surrounding the joints, such as joints, ligaments and muscles. As a result, cartilage tissue is destroyed, which ultimately leads to limited movement in the joint. Fungal arthritis can develop in almost any joint, for example, in the hip, knee, ankle, elbow, wrist.
