Overview

Rheumatic diseases comprise a group of conditions affecting joints, tendons, ligaments, bones, and muscles. Common examples include rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, lupus, gout, and fibromyalgia. These conditions often involve inflammation, pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility, impacting daily life significantly. While some are autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, others such as osteoarthritis result from wear and tear on joints over time. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, and sometimes imaging or blood tests to assess inflammation levels. Treatment varies depending on the specific disease but may include medication to manage symptoms, physical therapy to improve joint function, and lifestyle modifications such as exercise and diet changes. Early diagnosis and comprehensive management can help minimize symptoms and improve quality of life for individuals living with rheumatic diseases. The book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of rheumatic diseases and the recent researches in this field. It elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to rheumatic diseases. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals.
