Today is Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Day. 🧡 Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks joint tissue, leading to inflammation, pain, stiffness, and swelling — especially in the hands, wrists, and feet. Early recognition and care can make a meaningful difference in comfort and mobility.
Learn more about RA and how it affects the body below:
• Autoimmune inflammation causes joint pain, stiffness & swelling
• Symptoms often affect both sides of the body symmetrically
• Persistent stiffness, especially in the morning, may be a sign
• RA can lead to long‑term joint damage without proper management
• Early support and treatment help maintain quality of life
TenderCare can refer experienced caregivers trained to assist with daily activities and support for individuals with RA — helping with movement, routines, and comfort at home.
