Solution

The correct option is A Gout
Inflammation of joints due to accumulation of uric acid crystals in synovial joints causes gout.

Osteoporosis: Age-related disorder characterised by decreased bone mass and increased chances of fractures. Decreased levels of estrogen is a common cause.

Rheumatoid arthritis occurs when your immune system attacks the synovium which is the lining of the membranes that surround your joints.

Muscular dystrophy: Progressive degeneration of skeletal muscle mostly due to genetic disorder.
