Rheumatoid Arthritis Early Aggressive Treatment Keeps Away From Long Term Complications

A generation ago, rheumatoid arthritis pain quite often prompted distorted joints and extreme inability. However, the danger of incapacity can be drastically diminished when drugs that modify the immune system are begun at the start of the illness. 

Rheumatoid joint inflammation happens when the immune system attacks joint linings (synovial layers). The joints feel warm, swollen, and painful. Muscle aches and weariness may likewise happen. The beginning can be sudden involving swelling in just a couple of joints. 

Early diagnosis of RA 

At the point when joint pain and swelling starts see a doctor. Relentless aggravation can prompt changes that harm bone, ligaments, and tendons. Medicine can slow or stop this damaging process. The intensity of early treatment is helpful in the reduction of this disease. The more extended the active illness endures, the less likely it will respond to the treatment very fast. 

Exercise is very important for the treatment plan. A physical therapist can plan an exercise program to strengthen muscles, increase exercise limits, and keeps you away from joint deformities.

Rheumatoid Arthritis- Early Diagnosis, Best Results

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a condition that results in joint inflammation and pain. It occurs when the immune system malfunctions and attacks the joint lining (called the synovium). Typically, the condition affects small joints hands, elbow, shoulders, knees, or ankles, with the same joint on both sides of the body. However, rheumatoid arthritis can occasionally affect other body sections, including the eyes, heart, circulatory system, and lungs.

Rheumatoid arthritis is diagnosed in a variety of ways

Clinical parameters: Multiple Joint pains, joint swellings, and stiffness around joints in early morning hours

Blood tests: A positive blood test for Rheumatoid Factor and Anti CCP antibodies. High ESR and CRP gives a clue about active inflammations

X-rays/Ultrasound/MRI Scans: Changes in the x-rays of the hands, which are characteristic of rheumatoid arthritis. To diagnose early in doubtful cases Ultrasound of Joints and MRI scans are extremely useful.

The Importance of Early Diagnosis and Treatment

EULAR (The European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology) published guidelines emphasizing the vital need for early identification and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. EULAR modified its procedures for early referral to a rheumatologist: If symptoms linger for more than six weeks, patients should seek care, and a rheumatologist should lead early management.

Additionally, the recommendations state that patients at risk of developing chronic arthritis should begin treatment with Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Medications (DMARDs) within three months after the onset of symptoms.
