How can I fight RA joint pain?

  1. Hi . Know that people here definitely understand the RA joint pain. Are you currently being treated by a rheumatologist? I ask because they have a number of additional years training in treating musculoskeletal diseases and autoimmune conditions. There are now a number of treatments for RA and this article from our editorial team gives an overview: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/treatment. I also want to share with you this article on RA pain, with information on management and treatments: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/symptoms/joints-pain. Some community members find that they need additional help and seek out pain management specialists. This article goes into further detail on this: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/living/pain-management-specialist. Hope this information is helpful and that others chime in with their thoughts and experiences. Wishing you the best and please feel free to let us know how you are doing and to ask additional questions - this community is here for you. Richard (Team Member)

    1. Hi, !

      I can't add on to what Richard already shared, but I want you to know you're not alone in this and joint pain is a pretty common topic of conversation in this community. I hope you are able to find the treatment(s) that bring you some relief from the pain!

      Best, Erin, Team Member.
