Speciality: Rheumatology

Description:

A warm welcome to all the medical professionals in this interesting session on rheumatoid arthritis : know it better
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that primarily affects the joints, causing inflammation, pain, and stiffness. Unlike osteoarthritis, which results from wear and tear, RA occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy joint tissue, leading to swelling and eventual joint damage. Early symptoms often include morning stiffness, fatigue, and swelling in smaller joints like those in the hands and feet.
Understanding RA is crucial because early diagnosis and treatment can significantly slow disease progression. While there is no cure, a variety of treatments, including disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and biologics, can help control inflammation and prevent joint damage. RA not only impacts physical health but also mental well-being, as chronic pain and reduced mobility can affect quality of life. Knowing the signs and seeking timely care are essential steps toward better management of this complex condition.
