What is Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune and inflammatory disease in which the body’s immune system – which normally protects its health by attacking foreign substances like bacteria and viruses – mistakenly attacks the joints. This creates inflammation that causes the tissue that lines the inside of joints (the synovium) to thicken, resulting in swelling and pain in and around the joints. The synovium makes a fluid that lubricates joints and helps them move smoothly.


RA mainly attacks the joints, usually many joints at once. RA commonly affects joints in the hands, wrists, and knees. If inflammation goes unchecked, it can damage cartilage, the elastic tissue that covers the ends of bones in a joint, as well as the bones themselves. Over time, there is loss of cartilage, and the joint spacing between bones can become smaller. Joints can become loose, unstable, painful and lose their mobility. Joint deformity also can occur. Joint damage cannot be reversed, and because it can occur early. Rheumatoid arthritis most commonly affects the joints of the hands, feet, wrists, elbows, knees and ankles. The joint effect is usually symmetrical. That means if one knee or hand if affected, usually the other one is, too. Because RA also can affect body systems, such as the cardiovascular or respiratory systems, it is called a systemic disease. Systemic means “entire body.”

Symptoms of RA include:

  • Joint Pain in more than one joint.
  • Stiffness that may last for 6-8 weeks.
  • Tenderness and swelling in more than one joint
  • The same symptoms on both sides of the body (such as in both hands or both knees)
  • Sudden Weight loss
  • Fever
  • Fatigue or tiredness
  • Weakness

Stem Cell Therapy for Rheumatoid Arteritis


RA causes inflammation in the tissues between joints. It results in a loss of cartilage, which is the connecting tissue that cushions the joints. With due course of time, cartilage loss can damage the joint and adjoining bone. Stem cells are self-renewing and multipotent they have the ability to differentiate into all tissues of the skeletal system to control inflammation and regenerate damaged tissues. Stem cells contain the ability to connect tissues such as fat, bone, muscle and cartilage. Hence, Stem cells have the ability to suppress the immune system and reduce the body’s inflammatory response making it one of the most effective and promising Treatment available.


With our Team of experts and State of the Art Technology we have mastered the art to isolate maximum number of viable stem cells from autologous source (Bone Marrow and Adipose). Once derived these cells are thoroughly checked and administered to the patient under supervision of our expect Doctors.

These cells one infused reach to the damaged area and start repairing the damaged area enhancing the capability of the human body to repair in a better fashion and hence improving the quality of life.
