Rheumatoid Arthritis

What’s Rheumatoid Arthritis?

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of the types of autoimmune disease which causes joint pain and damage throughout your body. RA causing joint damage usually happens on both sides of the body. When RA is diagnosed early, the treatments work best.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Symptoms

RA is a long-term or chronic disease marked by symptoms of inflammation and pain in the joints. The symptoms of RA, which can occur throughout the body, include:

• Joint pain
• Joint swelling
• Joint stiffness
•  Loss of joint function
•  Pain can vary from mild to severe.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Diagnosis

Diagnosing of RA may require many lab tests that take time and to conform clinical examination findings. Prasad Hospitals, the Best Hospitals for Stem Cell Therapy for Knees in India, will ask about your symptoms and medical history. The team also perform a physical exam of the joints. This will include looking for swelling and redness and testing your reflexes and muscle strength. The doctor will also touch the affected joints to check for warmth and tenderness. If they suspect RA, they’ll most likely refer you to our specialist called a rheumatologist.

Since no single test can confirm a diagnosis of RA, doctor or rheumatologist may use several different types of tests. They may test your blood for certain substances like antibodies, or check the level of certain substances like acute phase reactants that are elevated during inflammatory conditions.

They may also request certain imaging tests. Tests such as ultrasonography, x-ray exams, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) not only show if damage from RA has been done to your joints but also how severe the damage is. A complete evaluation and monitoring of other organ systems may be for the people with RA.

How Stem Cells work for Rheumatoid Arthritis:

Stem cells are responsible for the development of the entire human body from a tiny two-celled embryo. This power of stem cells is harnessed by technology to isolate them outside the human body to be concentrated in the clean environment.

Stem cell treatment involves administering concentrated cells in the joints mainly in the case of Rheumatoid Arthritis, wherein they can also colonize in the damaged area. Stem cells possess properties to enhance the network of blood vessels. These stem cells regulate the body’s immune system. These cells can regulate the immune system and help to promote the hormonal balance back.
