It does not say whether faith should be in the product or in the diety. According to the testimony of Complainant's witness, Dr. Vincent F. Cordaro, a qualified medical doctor, there are several kinds or varieties of arthritis. The most common variety of arthritis is rheumatoid arthritis which can occur to persons of any age. Osteo-arthritis occurs primarily in older persons. It is a concomitant of the aging process.
Infectious arthritis is caused by some infecting organism which has invaded the body.
Gouty arthritis is the result of the collection of uric acid crystals in the joints of the bones of the body. The treatment of arthritis varies according to the type of the disease which the individual has. The treatment of gouty arthritis is by the taking of a product known as Allopurinol which serves to metabolize uric acid which otherwise would collect in the joints. The treatment of infectious arthritis depends upon the procedure necessary to treat particular infections which are present in the joint. In the treatment of arthritis, it is necessary, or certainly it is desirable, that the treatments be started as early as possible to prevent the spread of the condition or to reduce the progress of the disease.
