Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation in the joints, leading to pain, swelling, stiffness, and potential joint damage. It typically affects joints on both sides of the body, such as the hands, wrists, and knees. In addition to joint problems, RA can cause fatigue, fever, and weight loss. The exact cause is unknown, but it is believed to involve genetic and environmental factors. Early diagnosis and treatment with medications like disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) can help manage symptoms and prevent joint damage. Regular monitoring and a comprehensive treatment plan are essential for managing RA effectively.
