With a fixed mortgage loan, the rates remain constant throughout the term of your loan, whereas with adjustable mortgage rates you get a fixed rate for a certain length of your loan and then periodically change based on index and margin. You can also shorten the length of your loan by refinancing. You can switch to a shorter loan terms such as the 20 year fixed mortgage loan or a 15 year fixed mortgage loan and payoff your loan faster, but keep in mind your monthly payment will go up with this.
