Joint symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis

summary

Rheumatoid arthritis has been for several years, I don't know if it is because the weather often changes. The swelling and pain of the knee joint is serious. In order to prevent this situation, I'd like to introduce the joint symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.

Joint symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis

First: joint pain and swelling. The first joint pain, pain began, with joint swelling gradually obvious, pain also tends to be serious. Local joint effusion, high temperature, repeated attacks, the patient's muscle atrophy. The degree of joint tenderness is often related to the severity of the disease. Joint pain is related to the changes of climate, air pressure and temperature.

Second, morning stiffness. After waking up in the morning, the joint stiffness or the whole body feel tight. After getting up for a period of time (usually more than 15 minutes), the symptoms are relieved or disappeared. The difference between rheumatoid morning stiffness and other joint diseases is that rheumatoid morning stiffness is typical, frequent and persistent.

Third, multiple joints are involved. It is often caused by metacarpophalangeal joint or interphalangeal joint, followed by knee joint. At the time of onset, the affected joints often developed from one or two to more than three months, often symmetrical, but some patients showed asymmetric involvement. One month to three months after the first onset of joint disease, swelling and pain of other joints may appear, and then they will attack and relieve repeatedly. Symptoms can last for months, years or decades, and even most joints of limbs are involved.
