ABSTRACT
Inflammatory, persistent, and progressive joint degeneration caused by an autoimmune disease are the
hallmarks of arthritis. It manifests itself in the various joints of the human body as swelling, discomfort,
and inflammation in those joints. There are nearly as many individuals in the globe who suffer from
arthritis as there are men, and among those people, women are more likely to be affected by arthritis
than men. In the 21st century, researchers in the medical field are developing a variety of medications
and treatments for arthritis prevention. Yet, as of now, there is no treatment or medication that is proven
to be beneficial in curing arthritis. Hence, in this rapidly advancing age, scientists are studying the
medicinal properties of various herbs with the hopes of finding a remedy for the condition. Ginger,
which contains a large number of ingredients that have shown to be effective in treating arthritis, is the
most well-known and widely used antiarthritic plant. Ginger has been reported to exhibit tremendous
antiarthritic properties, and those activity will be addressed in this review.
