Is there such a thing as early onset arthritis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Arthritis, especially inflammatory arthritis, can occur at any age. Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis occurs in the very young. "early onset" arthritis would more commonly be from a prior injury which can lead to post-traumatic osteoarthritis.
