Solution

The correct option is B Gouty Arthritis
Pain and inflammation occur when too much uric acid crystallizes and deposits in the joints.
Symptoms of gout include severe pain, redness, swelling in joints, often the big toe. Attacks can come suddenly, often at night.
Osteoarthritis (degenerative arthritis) is a joint disease caused by cartilage loss in a joint. Pain and stiffness are symptoms.
Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common type of autoimmune arthritis. It is triggered by a faulty immune system (the body's defense system).
Myasthenia gravis is a long-term neuromuscular disease that leads to varying degrees of skeletal muscle weakness
