What Is Rheumatoid Arthritis?
Rheumatoid Arthritis is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the body's own tissues, particularly the lining of joints.
It can cause progressive joint damage if not appropriately treated.
Common Symptoms
- Joint pain
- Joint swelling
- Morning stiffness
- Warmth around joints
- Reduced joint movement
- Fatigue
- Weakness
- Symmetrical involvement of joints in many cases

- Hands
- Wrists

Diagnosis
Diagnosis may involve physical examination, blood tests such as rheumatoid factor and anti-CCP antibodies, inflammatory markers, and imaging.
Management
Early medical treatment is important. Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), biologic medicines, physical therapy, exercise, and other treatments may be used according to the individual's condition.
