Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease in which body’s immune system responsible for protects its health by attacking foreign substances like bacteria and viruses – mistakenly attacks the joints. This creates inflammation which causes the tissue that lines the inside of joints (the synovial) to thicken, resulting in swelling and pain in and around the joints. The synovial makes a fluid that lubricates joints and helps them move smoothly. There may be times when your rheumatoid arthritis (RA) symptoms get worse, and other times you feel great.

It is very important that you take medicines regularly to get relief from RA. You have to follow these important instructions while taking treatment for effective remedy:

• Start the medications
