Arathana Hospital, Pollachi -

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the joints, causing pain, swelling, and stiffness. It occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the lining of the joints, leading to inflammation and potential damage to other organs like the skin, eyes, lungs, heart, and blood vessels. At Arathana Hospital, we offer specialized care to manage and treat Rheumatoid Arthritis effectively, helping patients maintain mobility and improve their quality of life.
