1. Why are my joints stiff in the morning?
Morning stiffness is common with rheumatoid arthritis and can make movement difficult after periods of rest. Your physiotherapist can assess your mobility and suggest appropriate movement and exercise strategies based on your condition.
2. What causes swelling in finger and wrist joints?
Finger and wrist swelling can occur when rheumatoid arthritis affects these joints. Persistent swelling, pain, or stiffness should be evaluated by a qualified healthcare professional.
3. Why do my joints feel warm and tender?
Warmth, tenderness, swelling, and stiffness can occur with inflammatory joint conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis. If these symptoms are persistent or worsening, medical evaluation is important.
4. Can physiotherapy help with rheumatoid arthritis?
Yes. Physiotherapy can help people with RA maintain joint flexibility, improve muscle strength, support physical function, and stay physically active through an individualized exercise and rehabilitation plan.
5. What exercises are good for rheumatoid arthritis?
Depending on your symptoms and physical ability, a physiotherapist may recommend range-of-motion, flexibility, strengthening, and suitable aerobic exercises. Exercise should be tailored to the individual, particularly when joints are painful or symptoms change.
6. Is exercise safe when joints are painful or swollen?
Exercise can be part of RA management, but the type, intensity, and range of movement should be adjusted according to your symptoms. A physiotherapist can help you choose appropriate exercises and modify them when needed.
7. Can rheumatoid arthritis be treated without surgery?
Rheumatoid arthritis is a long-term autoimmune condition that is generally managed through medical care and rehabilitation rather than surgery alone. Physiotherapy can be used alongside appropriate medical treatment to support movement, strength, and daily function.
8. When should I see a physiotherapist for joint pain?
Consider a physiotherapy assessment if joint pain, stiffness, reduced mobility, or difficulty with daily activities is affecting your movement. Early assessment can help identify functional limitations and guide an appropriate exercise and rehabilitation plan.
