Tune in to learn the differences between rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory autoimmune disorder that affects the joints and can also impact other organs. It is characterized by morning stiffness, joint swelling, and symmetrical joint involvement. Osteoarthritis, on the other hand, is a wear and tear condition that primarily affects the joints. It is worsened by joint use and is associated with the development of osteophytes. The diagnosis of these conditions is based on clinical symptoms, serological markers, and imaging. Treatment involves managing inflammation and aiming for remission in rheumatoid arthritis, while addressing pain and joint damage in osteoarthritis.
