چکیده
Rheumatoid arthritis is basically an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of joints and other areas of the body.

In RA the joints are damaged to a huge extent that ultimately leads to its destruction and deformity. Although RA has no proper cure it can be treated well under good medications with sufficient rest and regular exercises and occasionally surgery. [1]
