Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder where the immune system mistakenly attacks the joints, often causing inflammation, pain, and swelling. Beyond joints, skin symptoms like nodules and rashes can occur, making RA a multifaceted condition.

Managing RA requires a multidisciplinary approach, involving a team of health professionals. Among them, the podiatrist plays a crucial role. They specialize in foot and ankle care, addressing symptoms such as foot and joint pain,corns, deformities, and ulcerations that often accompany RA.

Foot care is pivotal for RA patients. Appropriate footwear, with proper support and cushioning, helps alleviate pressure on joints and prevents deformities. Regular visits to a skilled podiatrist ensures proactive treatment and tailored care for foot-related issues. The lifelong nature of RA emphasizes the importance of consistent foot care.
