Is rheumatoid arthritis inflammation of the tendon in the wrist?
With rheumatoid arthritis (RA), two things are taking place in the joints. The immune system causes inflammation in the synovial membrane. This is called synovitis. The synovial membrane is a layer of tissue that lines the inside of all the joints. Initially this results in extra fluid, swelling, and oozing clots in the joint. The pain and swelling of synovitis can be brought under control. However as a result of the synovitis other problems in the joint are caused. The blood cells and the swollen membranes release chemicals into the synovial fluid (this is the fluid that lubricates the joint) that break down and damage the tissue of the joint. This can bring about permanent damage to the cartilage, bone, ligaments, and tendons inside and around the joint. As a general rule structural damage happens in the first to third year of the disease. The synovitis can come and go, but the structural damage progresses,leading to the affected joint becoming painful, stiff and in some cases deformed.RA usually affects many corresponding joints on both sides of body. (For example, both Hands and both wrists, both elbows and so on).
