The purpose of this survey is to determine how common early arthritic changes are in long-term alcohol users. Prior to conducting the survey, the ethical committee's approval was obtained.

Result: In this study we found the prevalence of 81.97% of early arthritic changes in chronic alcoholers which includes elevation in the ESR and CRP levels, changes in the X-rays and symptoms like morning stiffness, joint pain, swelling.
