What is Rheumatoid Arthritis?

Rheumatoid Arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disorder in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the synovial lining of joints, causing painful inflammation, swelling, and progressive joint damage. It most commonly affects the small joints of the hands and feet symmetrically but can also involve larger joints and other organs including the lungs, heart, and eyes. Over time, unchecked inflammation can erode cartilage and bone, leading to deformity and disability. It typically develops between ages 30 and 60 and is more common in women.
