Ayurvedic Reference of Rheumatoid Arthritis (Aamvata)
Amavata is a painful joint condition which is explained in Ayurveda Textbooks. The features of Rheumatoid Arthritis are similar to the Amavata.
A vitiation of Life Force vata and accumulation of Ama takes place in joints. Ama is a undigested product of the body, when this Ama gets lodged in joints or tissues it is responsible for the symptoms like pain, stiffness, swelling, tenderness etc. in the joints, loss of appetite, indigestion, weakness, heaviness in the chest. Amavata is the outcome of Agnidushti, amoptti and sandhivikruti (joint deformity). Many people in society are unaware of the disease and its complications which are responsible for lifelong joint deformities.
Types of Rheumatoid Arthritis
There are three types of RA:-
- Seropositive Rheumatoid Arthritis:- If blood protein RF (Rheumatoid Factor) or anti ccp (antibody anticyclic citrullinated peptide) blood test comes positive that means body may be actively producing an immune reaction to the normal tissues. Chances of developing RA is greater if parents or siblings tests positive for RF.

Clinical symptoms, X rays and other lab. tests can also diagnose Rheumatoid Arthritis. People tests negative for this test tends to have milder form of RA than those tests positive.
