Rheumatoid
arthritis (RA)
is the most common type of autoimmune arthritis.
It is caused when the immune system (the body's defense
system) is not working properly. RA causes pain and
swelling in the wrist and small joints of the hand and
feet. Studies
show that people who receive early treatment for RA feel
better sooner and more often, and are more likely to
lead an active life. They also are less likely to have
the type of joint damage that leads to joint
replacement. People
have long feared rheumatoid arthritis (commonly called
RA) as one of the most disabling types of arthritis. The
good news is that the outlook has greatly improved for
many people with newly diagnosed (detected) RA. Of
course, RA remains a serious disease, and one that can
vary widely in symptoms (what you feel) and outcomes.
Even so, treatment advances have made it possible to
stop or at least slow the progression (worsening) of
joint damage. Rheumatologists now
have many new treatments that target the inflammation
that RA causes. They also understand better when and how
to use treatments to get the best effects.
