  1. Rheumatoid Arthritis and Its Symptoms - Dr. Divyanshu Welcome to this informative session on rheumatoid arthritis. I'm Dr. Divyanshu, known as the Best Orthopedic Doctor in Lucknow, specializing in rheumatology. We'll delve into the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and management of this chronic autoimmune disease.

  2. Understanding Rheumatoid Arthritis Autoimmune Disorder Synovial Membrane This disease causes the body's immune system to mistakenly attack healthy tissues in the joints, leading to inflammation. It primarily affects the synovial membrane, which lines the joints. This membrane produces fluid to lubricate the joints.

  3. Causes and Risk Factors of Rheumatoid Arthritis Genetics Environmental Factors Family history plays a role, as some genes make individuals more susceptible to RA. Exposure to certain viruses, bacteria, or environmental pollutants might trigger RA. Hormones Women are more likely to develop RA, possibly due to hormonal influences.

  4. Common Symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis Joint Pain Swelling Fatigue Pain and stiffness are most noticeable in the morning or after periods of rest. The affected joints become swollen, warm to the touch, and tender. Feeling tired, weak, and lacking energy is a common symptom. Joint Deformity In severe cases, the affected joints can become deformed due to cartilage and bone damage.

  5. Diagnosing and Treating Rheumatoid Arthritis Physical Examination Blood Tests Imaging Tests A thorough examination of the affected joints helps in making a diagnosis. Blood tests can detect rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies. X-rays, MRI scans, and ultrasound can reveal changes in the joints.

  6. Managing Rheumatoid Arthritis: Lifestyle Changes Regular Exercise 1 Low-impact exercises like swimming or cycling can improve joint flexibility and strength. Healthy Diet 2 A nutritious diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and omega-3 fatty acids can reduce inflammation. Stress Management 3 Stress can worsen RA symptoms. Techniques like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing can help manage stress.
