Treatment for Rheumatoid Arthritis

The One-Stop For Pain Management and Mobility

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects millions of people worldwide. It is a complex and often painful condition that impacts a person’s joints as well as their overall quality of life. It is characterised by an interplay of genetic and environmental factors, leading to an abnormal immune response that targets healthy tissues. Women are at greater risk of RA than men.
