Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder that commonly affects the smaller joints of the hands and feet, causing inflammation, swelling, stiffness, and pain. It is triggered by an immune system response to viruses, bacteria, or other causes. Over time, it can lead to deformities in the joints. Homeopathic treatment focuses on addressing the underlying imbalance in the vital force rather than just symptoms, by considering the totality of symptoms and the individual's constitutional type. Positive homeopathy treatment matches the remedy to the person's overall mental and physical constitution.
