Rheumatoid Arthritis

An autoimmune condition common that primarily attacks the joints in the hands and feet. It can affect a number of other systems in the body too

Symptoms in the earliest stages will normally affect the little toe joint on both feet at the same time.

Podiatric management with insoles, footwear advice, injections, anti-inflammatory regimens will initially help however, you should be referred to a rheumatologist for optimum management and I can assist in facilitating this.

This condition used to cause severe deformities, however modern medications can almost entirely prevent the deterioration of joints with this condition now.
