Hello..... Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the joints. more common in females... The cause of rheumatoid arthritis is unknown. It is not known what triggers the onset of rheumatoid arthritis. Regardless of the exact trigger, the result is an immune system that is geared up to promote inflammation in the joints and occasionally other tissues of the body. There is no cure for this.
