Question: at what age do you get rheumatoid arthritis?
Answer: You can get rheumatoid arthritis (RA) at any age, but it's most likely to show up between ages 30 and 50. When it starts between ages 60 and 65, it's called elderly-onset RA or late-onset RA. Elderly-onset RA is different from RA that starts in earlier years. It also comes with a separate set of treatment challenges.
