Are You Suffering From RA? Rheumatoid arthritis, commonly known as RA, is an autoimmune disorder that causes chronic inflammation in your joints. As an autoimmune disorder, it is due to your bodies immune system mistakenly attacking its own tissue. Compared to osteoarthritis, which is usually due to normal wear-and-tear on your body, RA directly affects the lining of your joints, causing swelling that can become painful and even result in deformity and erosion of bone. Despite its significant effect on, and therefore association with, joints, RA can also affect multiple other body systems. These alternatively involved systems can cause symptoms that may not generally be associated with RA. ​Other Involved Body Systems and Associated Symptoms​ Skin - Rheumatoid nodules (small lumps under the skin over bony areas) ...

IBD vs IBS Despite many people suffering from either IBD or IBS, there is some confusion between the two.

IBS affects the large intestine and, while fairly common, does not always present with significant symptoms. This, combined with the fact that symptoms can often be managed with changes in diet, lifestyle, and stress, is good news for the 10%-15% of the global population that suffers from the disease. IBS Symptoms​ Abdominal pain/cramping/bloating that is typically relieved with a bowel movement Increased gas passing Alternating constipation and diarrhea Mucusy stool Luckily, while these symptoms are obviously never fun, having IBS does not affect the tissue of the bowel or increase one's risk for colon cancer.​ Diagnosing IBS While there is...
