World Autoimmune Arthritis Day

World Autoimmune Arthritis Day, observed annually, raises awareness about autoimmune diseases that cause joint inflammation, such as rheumatoid arthritis. These conditions occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own joints and tissues, leading to pain, swelling, and possible joint damage. The day aims to educate the public, support those affected, and promote research for better treatments. By increasing awareness, it helps reduce misconceptions and encourages early diagnosis and management, improving quality of life for individuals living with autoimmune arthritis.
