Rheumatoid Arthritis Disability |
However, for most patients, if they can grasp the early stage of the disease progression and adopt formal treatment and regular follow-up treatment, the serious joint deformity or disability can be completely avoided or greatly reduced, and patients can maintain relatively better life quality and work ability.
Even if some patients have already had joint deformity, some orthodontic treatment or corrective surgery can be adopted according to different individual condition to prevent from disability. Therefore, whether all Rheumatoid Arthritis will lead to disability, it depends on the severity degree and whether patients have adopted formal and regular treatment.
To prevent disability, there are several points RA patients need to pay attention to.
1, early diagnosis and early treatment. Years’clinical practice has proved that early diagnosis and extensive early treatment play pretty important role in controlling disease progression and improving prognosis. In order to get early diagnosis, patients need to have some basic learning of the symptoms of RA and go to formal clinics or hospital for professional diagnosis.
2, scientific daily diet and lifestyle. There is an old saying in china that 30 percent of one disease determined by treatment and the left 70 percent determined by recuperating, especially for the chronic disease like RA. For the detail guide of diets and lifestyle, you can write me an email: treatmentchina@gmail.com. Glad to communicate with you.
3, proper exercise and functional training. Suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) does not mean patients can not move or work any more. On the contrary, proper exercise r work can help to maintain the normal joint form and function. Except for patients who have severe pain and can not move in acute stage, all of them should insist on regular and proper exercise or training according to their tolerance. It is alright just as the exercise intensity won’t aggravate the second day’s symptom.
