    Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the joints and causes inflammation, pain, and joint damage. In RA, the body's immune system attacks its own joints, leading to swelling, redness, and warmth in the affected area. Over time, this inflammation can cause damage to the cartilage and bones within the joint, leading to joint deformity and decreased range.
