What is the prefix and suffix of acroarthritis?
acroarthritis. In medical terminology, the prefix 'acr/o' is used to refer to extremities, 'arthr/o' is used to refer to joints, and the suffix 'itis' is used to denote inflammation. Hence, 'acroarthritis' denotes inflammation of the joints in the extremities.Sep 3, 2023
