1. Rest. Especially when the lesion is in the acute stage, the patient should rest completely to reduce pain; non-acute stage also does not advocate the patient to overly active and do strenuous exercise. 2.Physiotherapy. During the recovery period, effective physical therapy can be chosen to help the joint movement and improve the inflammatory response of the diseased joint, and also to prevent excessive loss of function. 3, the main drugs are as follows: (1) salicylates: clinically more used, each dose 0.5-1.0g, 4 times / d. Prone to gastrointestinal reactions and reduced platelet aggregation capacity. At present, most of the intestinal soluble preparations are used. (2) gold preparations: in the former can not control the symptoms, can be used to thioxomalate gold sodium or thioglucose gold and other gold preparations of intra-muscular injection, 10μg in the first week, 25μg in the second week, and later up to 50μg per week. (3) Immunosuppressants: such as cyclophosphamide, methotrexate and other drugs. Mainly used for severe, active rheumatoid arthritis. Methotrexate should be administered once a week at a dosage of 2.5-15 μg, and the patient’s liver and blood system should be closely monitored after administration. 4.Surgical treatment. The deformity caused by rheumatoid lesions can be treated surgically in the resting phase, and the following four types of surgery are commonly used: (1) Synovectomy: mainly used for metacarpophalangeal joints, wrist joints and knee joints, etc. The synovial membrane of the lesion can be removed. After synovectomy, joint function should be gradually restored with the help of braces. (2) Synovectomy with joint irrigation + microscopy: In large joints, especially the knee joint, synovectomy can be performed under the arthroscope with repeated irrigation in order to replace the composition of the joint fluid to relieve the symptoms of arthritis and improve the function of the joint. (3) Arthroplasty: For weight-bearing joints, especially the metatarsophalangeal joint of the foot, when there is a claw-like toe deformity that affects weight-bearing, metatarsal head resection can be performed to form a new joint to improve weight-bearing function and relieve pain. (4) Artificial joint replacement: In severe rheumatoid patients, when the hip or knee joint is severely damaged beyond repair, artificial joint replacement can be used as appropriate. Such cases are common in elderly patients.
