Abstract

It is acknown that Rheumatoid inflammation is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease developing on the background of infection. Damages mainly the heart, blood vessels, musculoskeletal system and other internal organs. Multiple joints may be affected, primarily the knee, ankle and elbow undergoing destruction leads to pain, mainly symmetrical. Damaged joints swollen and skin in these foci reddens; joint morning stiffness lasts for an hour or more, this sign is accompanied by low fever and fatigue. As a result of the rheumatic process, the heart is damaged, leading to cardiovascular manifestations. Analysis of blood parameters allows the severity of the disease to be determined based on a relatively new method using Das28. The obtained results for ESR and CRP are used to calculate DAS28, which also allows monitoring of RA treatment. Most patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are seropositive—they have abnormally high levels of rheumatoid factor (RF) or anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CPP) in the blood. The article examines aspects of synthetic, chemical and alternative medicine impact on treating patients with RA as well. The article discusses comparative aspects of pharmacological and herbal medicine in the therapeutics. According to the literature, patients who have not received the expected results after treatment with pharmacological preparations successfully use herbal remedies as a means of body restoring and healing. To date, the success of traditional medicine is ahead of those of conventional using synthetic drugs.
