Women with arthritis in their upper extremities -- whether it be their shoulders, elbows, hands, wrists, or fingers -- often have difficulty putting on a bra. Putting on a bra is a simple activity of daily living that is taken for granted by healthy people. For women with arthritis there is an arthritis bra, as it's called, made with front closures or velcro that makes it not only possible to put on -- it's easy.
