Rheum for Improvement Tackling Rheumatoid Arthritis

MedEvidence Articles

In this episode, we explore the complexities of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease affecting millions worldwide. RA causes the immune system to attack healthy joint tissue, leading to pain, stiffness, swelling, and serious complications such as joint and bone damage, and organ issues. We'll discuss the factors contributing to RA, its impact on daily life, and the various treatment options available. Join us to understand how to manage and seek relief from this debilitating disease.
