Rheumatoid arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease which affects the whole body. The membranes surrounding joints and tendons become inflamed, leading to irritation and damage of the joint surface and nearby soft tissues.
Rheumatoid arthritis is usually diagnosed by a combination of clinical history and presentation, blood tests and x-rays. Early diagnosis is vital to ensure treatment can start as soon as possible.
Symptoms can include:
- Hot, swollen, painful, stiff joints
- Joint and muscle stiffness in the morning
- Reduced grip strength and function
- Joint deformities
- Reduced sensation related to nerve compression
