The Arthritis Advisor search engine uses most of the standard search techniques. Some of the most common that you might be interested in using are...

• Search for exact phrases using quotation marks (" ")
  Typing "arthritis symptoms" will find items with those exact words in sequence.

• Use a wildcard (*) for multiple endings
  By typing an * (asterisk symbol) at the end of a word, you can search for items with multiple endings. For example: nutrition* would return items such as nutrition, nutritional, nutritionally, etc.

• Use the minus sign (-) to narrow your search
  If you enter supplements -nutrition, that tells the search engine to include the word supplements but not nutrition. Don't forget - there's no space after the sign (e.g. -aspirin, -drugs).
