FEB 2 is observed annually as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Awareness Day. According to the Arthritis Foundation Malaysia, RA affects five out of every 1,000 people in Malaysia regardless of age or gender.
RA is characterised by the body’s immune system mistakenly attacking its own joint lining, resulting in stiffness, pain and swelling. If not treated early, it may lead to joint damage and deformities over time.
