Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the lining of the joints, causing pain, swelling, and stiffness. It often affects the hands, wrists, and feet symmetrically and can progress to joint damage if not treated early.

Modern rheumatology care focuses on controlling inflammation quickly to protect joints and maintain daily function. Treatment may include disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), biologic therapy, monitoring blood tests, and structured follow-up care.
