Presents with fatigue and weakness, muscle aches, weight loss, increased pulse, fever, symmetrical redness and swelling of the joints, and heat pain.
Chinese medicine believes that there are two conditions that are more likely to lead to rheumatoid arthritis. The first situation is that the patient is weak in the body, and the external evil invades, due to the weakness of the body, the internal rational law is unstable, the righteous qi is not solid, when the external evil enters the body, it cannot rely on its own resistance to resist the external evil, resulting in the external evil remaining in the meridians, joints and muscles, so that the qi and blood are blocked, rheumatoid arthritis will occur. The second situation is that the external wind and cold and wet evil, in the weather changes, the season of change, due to the temperature alternating hot and cold, so that the joint lesions, or because the home is wet, the hands and feet often wading, the external evil directly through the muscle joints and blood veins into the body, it is easy to appear rheumatoid arthritis.
