In the context of rheumatism diseases, rheumatism arthromic arthritis and invertebrates are often mentioned, but they are two distinct conditions with their own “faces”.
Rheumatism arthritis is like an “aggressor of small joints”. It mainly points the spear to the near-end joints of the hand, the hand finger joints and the wrist joints, and presents a symmetrical distribution, as if the hand joints on both sides had been “diseased”. Patients often feel rigid joints at the start of the morning, which sometimes lasts for more than an hour, seriously affecting daily life. As the condition evolves, the joints are swelling and the pain is increasing, and if not effectively controlled, the joints may also be deformed, the previously flexible fingers become deformed, significantly reducing the mobility of the hand and the fine-action function, and making it extremely difficult to wear clothes, buttons, pens, etc.
It’s more like a “spoiled prisoner”. Its main “fields of battle” are in the hips and spinal cords and gradually “erosion” from the bottom up. At an early stage, patients will notice pain in the lower waist or buttocks, especially when they rise for extended sitting or resting hours. The pain is more pronounced, but when they move, the body is reduced, which is different from the pain characteristic of rheumatism. Continued progress in the condition, slow loss of flexibility in the spinal column, integration of the vertebrae, rigidity and sharpness of the entire spine, and severe effects on the patient ‘ s physical posture, as well as downside hunchbacks, restricted neck activity, and, in serious cases, even a lack of normal vision, turning around, severely limiting the scope of the body ‘ s activities and its ability to provide for itself.
Rheumatological arthritis is closely related to the disorder of the own immune system, with the body erroneously attacking the joint as an “enemy”, which causes inflammation and injury, while the direct spinal disease has a strong genetic orientation, with genetic factors playing an important role in its onset, while environmental factors, infections, etc. may also induce the development of disease.
From a therapeutic point of view, the treatment of rheumatological arthritis focuses on the use of anti-regular drugs, such as ammonium butterflies and fluoromethamy, inhibiting excessive activity of the immune system, mitigating inflammatory response and protecting joint functions. Biological agents can also play an important role in the fight against inflammatory factors for patients with more severe conditions. In the case of direct spinal disease, during the onset of pain, non-synthetic anti-inflammation drugs are commonly used to relieve pain and inflammation; biological agents can also effectively control the progress of the disease for patients with more active conditions. At the same time, the patient is required to maintain a long-term process of rehabilitation, to maintain the right standing, sitting and sleeping positions and to prevent further deformation of the spine.
Understanding these differences between rheumatism arthromic arthritis and acoustic spinal disease, whether for self-identification, early diagnosis or subsequent normative treatment and rehabilitation management, is crucial. Only if they are precisely differentiated can they be drugged, better controlled, quality of life improved and patients gained more initiative in their struggle against disease.
