Rheumatoid arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis

In orthopedics, Rheumatoid arthritis is a significant concern as it often results in joint deformities and functional impairment. The synovial lining of affected joints becomes inflamed, leading to the destruction of cartilage and bone. Orthopedic specialists play a crucial role in the management of RA, particularly when joint deformities and functional limitations arise. Surgical interventions, such as joint replacement surgeries (arthroplasty), may be considered in advanced cases to alleviate pain and restore joint function. RA commonly affects joints in a symmetrical pattern, and orthopedic assessments involve evaluating the extent of joint involvement, assessing deformities, and monitoring disease progression. Orthopedic interventions may include the prescription of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and anti-inflammatory medications to manage symptoms and slow disease progression. Understanding the impact of rheumatoid arthritis on the musculoskeletal system is essential in orthopedics for comprehensive patient care. Collaboration between orthopedic specialists and rheumatologists is often necessary to optimize treatment strategies, address joint deformities, and improve the overall quality of life for individuals with rheumatoid arthritis.
