"Tine various conditions included in the broad term 'rh ' can be subdivided into three main groups - arthritis. ncnarticular (joint) rheumatism, and rheumatic fever (including rheumatic heart disease)"

"Ills" means iniflammation of, so that arthritis is inflammation of a joint and licludes all the struc- tures of a joint - that is. the bones and lining of the bones. "There are about 100 different types of arth- rits. Whle they all inflame the joint, they differ widely in cause, symptoms, methods of treatment, and the degree of disability that may result.

Rheumatic fever is ser- ious because heart disease is a common result. particularly in children. "It is childhood's greatest enemy." What about treatment of rheu- matism and at-tihritis?

Physic- lsns specializing in rheumatism and arthritis are able to obtain results that enable the patient to retain or recover normal or near normal liv- ing.

Treatment consists of properly controlled rest and special exer- cises. Heat applications enable the pailent to get relief from pain and help him to get more movement in the joint with less pain.
