Early Signs Of Rheumatoid Arthritis

Joint Pain

Dreamstime

Individuals feeling a little stiff in the morning is one thing, particularly if they slept in an uncomfortable position or on a hard surface (such as on the ground in a tent), but if they also experience pain and tenderness around their joints, particularly frequently, it's time for them to contact a doctor. There is no need to live with these issues when treatments are readily available. Usually, the smaller joints, like fingers, are affected by a condition like rheumatoid arthritis first, but it can eventually cause trouble in an individual's knees, shoulders, and feet. This could cause life-altering issues if not treated, leaving affected individuals without the ability to move around independently.
