Haan, bilkul! RA ko connective tissue disease ki category mein hi rakhte hain kyunki ye humare joints aur tissues ko damage karta hai na. Doctor se iska proper treatment lena zaroori hai.

Yes, it is classified under autoimmune connective tissue diseases. I use health tracking apps to monitor my inflammation markers and symptoms, which really helps in managing this condition systematically.

Haan na, ye actually connective tissue ko hi target karti hai. Body ke joints aur baaki parts ke tissues mein inflammation ho jata hai. Doctor se checkup karwana hi padega iske liye.

Yes, it affects the connective tissues of our joints. While you can drink warm ginger-turmeric water to soothe the pain, please do not skip consulting a specialist for proper medical treatments.
