Despite the common belief that arthritis only affects the elderly, nearly two-thirds of people with arthritis are younger than 65. Nearly 1 in 250 children actually suffer from the disease. The types of arthritis characterized by joint inflammation, such as rheumatoid arthritis, can happen at any age.

Another common myth is that nightshade vegetables, which include potatoes, eggplant, peppers and tomatoes, can exacerbate arthritis symptoms. The belief is that a chemical in these vegetables can cause too much calcium to build up in the body, damaging the joints. But doctors say there's not a lot of scientific evidence to back up that claim. Recent studies actually concluded and found that nightshade vegetables may actually help keep symptoms in check.
