[naturelover]

I would like to know what could be the early signal through which a person can identify RA and the best treatment available to treat the ailment. My wife who is started to state the she experiences pain in knee joint and ankles are looking like starting stage of RA. Please come up with a good advice.

I myself read an article which states that fibre rich diets helps in controlling inflammatory diseases to a great extent. Anyone can access the article from here

Sorry, but I'm absolutely sure that there is no permanent solution for the cure of the RA. It take place because the treatment of the RA depends of the health condition and the health situation of the man's organism. But all the same, try the Dicrasin.

All the medical literature says that there is no cure for RA, but that there are medications that can slow down its progress, often significantly so. And there are increasingly more and better medications for reducing the pain that is the huge downside of RA. The that there is no cure is that no one really knows what starts RA. Something - lot of speculation as to what - makes some subsets of the white blood cells -- the ones that normally protect us from viruses, bacteria and the like -- go haywire and begin to attack the lining of joints (the synovial tissue), and in many cases destroy the cushioning within the joints that makes them work comfortably. The responses to the medications, though, are highly individual; many people can go for years pretty much holding RA at bay, while some others progress rapidly to serious impairment in their movements.

There are a host of excellent websites that discuss RA in great depth, and you need to read those carefully, and optimistically. Most critically, make sure that you are being seen by a rheumatologist, if at all possible, not just by a general physician - even if it means periodic travel to see the rheumatologist. The science of this disease is continually advancing, and you need a physician who is as up to date as possible.

This forum is a good place to find people who are there, who have been there, and who have learned how to cope with RA about as well as possible. You will find support and comfort here, and great understanding. All my best to you. Kageyd (recently diagnosed).

RA until now has no permanent cure but there are medications that can decrease the pain.

I do not thing that rheumatiod arthritis has a permanent solution. It is called an ailment because of this reason. There is a slight difference between the two terms 'disease' and 'ailment'. Ailment cannot be completely cured where as a disease can be.
