Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease of unknown etiology. It is chronic and progressive, with symmetric swelling and pain in several joints throughout the body (especially small joints of the hands and feet), often accompanied by significant morning stiffness, and in severe cases, causing swelling and pain and deformity of the joints throughout the body, and even inability to move and take care of themselves, resulting in disability. In general, more than 75% of the bone damage in rheumatoid patients occurs in the first 1-2 years of the disease, so we should advocate early diagnosis after the detection of symptoms and timely and active treatment to prevent disability. Therefore, we all know the danger of rheumatoid and should understand the pain of patients with the disease, but rheumatoid is not terrible, as long as active and correct treatment, most of the disease can be alleviated or even stabilized without occurrence. Here are a few rheumatoid arthritis patient attention, may bring some benefit to patients: 1, acute active rheumatoid patients, should be bed rest, through the treatment of acute inflammation disappeared, to adapt to the body condition of the exercise. The amount of activity can be adjusted according to the reaction after the activity. If the joint pain increases after the activity, it means that the activity is excessive and should be adjusted appropriately. The amount of activity should be from small to large, the activity time from short to long, and the number of activities from small to large. Through activities to enhance physical fitness, invigorate the spirit, maintain joint activity, improve joint function and avoid joint contracture, ankylosis and muscle atrophy. Depending on the person, exercise, do not exceed their tolerance, moderate, the amount of activity should be gradually increased, step by step. 2, rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic wasting disease, coupled with some anti-rheumatic drugs may produce adverse stimulation of the digestive tract, will cause poor appetite, resulting in the body’s required nutrients and protein absorption is insufficient, malnutrition and anemia, etc.. In this case, it is necessary to supplement protein and multivitamins in the diet of patients. In case of anemia, red dates, animal liver, lean meat, etc. can be consumed. For patients with significant osteoporosis, in addition to increasing protein, vitamin D and calcium should be increased. In the acute activity period, if there is redness, swelling and heat pain in the joints, spicy and irritating and greasy food should not be eaten more, and those who have long-standing gastrointestinal discomfort, such as edema or high blood pressure complications, also need to properly control the intake of water and salt. The so-called rheumatoid patients, do not be too strict, if you eat a certain food caused by obvious swelling and pain in the joints, then the patient should not eat this food, other or to nutrition. 3, rheumatoid arthritis about 90% of patients are sensitive to climate change. In cloudy, rainy, windy or stimulated by cold, wet, local swelling and pain in the joints can increase. Some patients’ condition changes with the seasons, so we should pay attention to the climate, the impact of the seasons on the disease, so that the four seasons and adjust the cold temperature, prevention is the main focus, pay attention to avoid cold, keep warm. In summer, we should be careful with air conditioning, air conditioning temperature should not be too low, blowing fan wind should be soft, to prevent aggravation of the disease. 4, the patient should reduce the mental burden, treat the disease correctly and remain optimistic. Most of the drugs for rheumatoid rheumatism work slowly, usually need 1-2 months to take effect, so patients should not be anxious. Today there is no special drug that can control rheumatoid rheumatism in a few days. Especially for patients with acute activity, the disease can not be controlled for a while, do not be impatient. We have learned in our treatment practice that the patient’s subjective efforts, correct treatment and continuity of treatment are the three main elements to ensure the success of rheumatoid arthritis treatment. As the saying goes, three points of medicine, seven points of conditioning. Therefore, rheumatoid patients themselves are the best doctors.
