Hi, it appears that you have minimal invasion of the disease R.A. it is more in winter. I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
I advise my patients with such symptoms prescribe,neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, and one injection every week, then one injection every month for ever along with the available drugs.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and sea foods during winter. Thank you.
