The treatment of rheumatoid arthritis includes medication, surgery and other auxiliary treatments. 1. Pharmacological treatment: commonly used therapeutic drugs for rheumatoid arthritis include anti-rheumatic drugs, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and glucocorticosteroids. Anti-rheumatic drugs such as adalimumab, tofacitib and methotrexate can help to control the progress of the disease, while non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as celecoxib can alleviate the symptoms of swelling and pain of patients’ joints. Glucocorticosteroids such as methylprednisolone can rapidly relieve the inflammatory state of joints. 2. Surgery: If the disease cannot be controlled after active standardized treatment, surgery can be used to improve the quality of life and correct the joint deformity, common surgical methods include synovectomy and arthroplasty. 3. Other treatments: Wax therapy, magnetic therapy, hydrotherapy, infrared and other physical treatments can play a certain role in relieving joint pain symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis patients. Drugs need to be used under the guidance of a physician, it is recommended that patients go to the rheumatology and immunology departments of regular hospitals and other related departments for detailed consultation, and follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment.
