  • Descrição: Rheumatoid arthritis is a multi-systemic, autoimmune and chronic disease, characterized by inflammation. Rheumatoid arthritis reduces the quality of life by causing pain, fatigue, morning stiffness, limitation of movement, difficulties in daily life, deterioration in social relations, and depression.
