medications, therapy and surgery.
Medications- Some of the medications effective in treating
Rheumatoid Arthritis are:
- NSAIDs
- Steroids
- Conventional DMARDs
- Biological Agents
- Targeted Synthetic DMARDs
Therapy: When it comes to
therapy, your doctor may recommend you to join a physical or
occupational therapy class where you will be taught exercises
to help manage the pain and inflammation of your joints.
Surgery: But when all other methods have not given any
successful results, the final option is surgery. A total of
four procedures are available to a patient with Rheumatoid
Arthritis. These may be used in a combination of two or three
or all of them.
