Rheumatoid Arthritis and Autoimmune Joint Disease Treatment in Dhaka
Dr. AKM Mohiuddin treats rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune joint conditions at Surecell Medical, Gulshan-1, Dhaka, using stem cell therapy alongside standard rheumatological care.
What Is Rheumatoid Arthritis?
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the lining of the joints, causing inflammation, pain, and swelling. It typically affects joints on both sides of the body, such as both hands or both knees.
What Are Autoimmune Joint Diseases?
Autoimmune joint disease is a broader category that includes rheumatoid arthritis and other multi-system inflammatory conditions, where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own joint tissue.
Symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis and Autoimmune Joint Disease
Symptoms often develop gradually and can flare and improve over time.
Joint pain and swelling, often affecting the same joints on both sides of the body Morning stiffness that lasts longer than an hour Fatigue Warmth or redness over the affected joints Symptoms that flare up and then ease, rather than staying constant
How Dr. AKM Mohiuddin Treats Rheumatoid Arthritis and Autoimmune Joint Disease
Dr. Mohiuddin uses stem cell therapy to help support joint tissue and reduce inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune joint conditions.
This treatment is used alongside standard rheumatological care, not as a replacement for it. Autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis are managed long term through disease-modifying medication under a rheumatologist, and stem cell therapy is offered as additional joint-focused support within that broader care plan.
What to Expect During Treatment
Treatment starts with a clinical assessment, including a review of your diagnosis and current rheumatological care, a physical examination, and relevant imaging of the affected joints.
Based on this assessment, Dr. Mohiuddin discusses whether stem cell therapy is appropriate as an addition to your existing care, then walks through the treatment plan and follow-up.
Is Treatment Right for You?
Treatment suitability depends on your specific diagnosis, how active your disease currently is, and the treatment you are already receiving from your rheumatologist. This approach works best as part of a coordinated care plan, not as a stand-alone treatment for the underlying autoimmune condition.
A clinical assessment is the only way to know whether stem cell therapy is appropriate for your case.
QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis?
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the joint lining, often affecting both sides of the body. Osteoarthritis is caused by cartilage wearing down over time and is not autoimmune.
Can stem cell therapy help rheumatoid arthritis?
Stem cell therapy is used to support joint tissue and help manage joint symptoms in appropriately selected rheumatoid arthritis patients, used alongside standard rheumatological care rather than replacing it.
Does stem cell therapy replace rheumatoid arthritis medication?
No. Rheumatoid arthritis is managed long term with disease-modifying medication under a rheumatologist. Stem cell therapy is offered as additional joint-focused support, not a replacement for that ongoing medical management.
What are autoimmune joint diseases?
Autoimmune joint diseases are conditions where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own joint tissue, causing inflammation and pain. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common example.
