How is rheumatism treated?

Patient's question:

I am 53 years old. Recently, as I have gotten older, I have been experiencing leg pain. I have previously visited the immunology department, but the effect was not significant. I have taken both Chinese and Western medicine, especially when the weather changes, I feel uncomfortable. How is rheumatoid arthritis treated?

Doctor's answer:

Rheumatic diseases, if you want to treat them effectively, can use hormone drugs to relieve symptoms, or use immune-boosting drugs as appropriate. After a period of synergistic treatment, the symptoms of joint pain can be basically relieved. However, it is essential to enhance physical fitness, otherwise, it is very likely to relapse after being exposed to cold air. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to conditioning from daily life.
