Simple movement can release the stiffness.

diagnosed. The body generates antibodies which may result in joint
swelling. The disease condition spread its boundaries to the
neighbouring organs. It causes infection to the vital organs like lungs,
eyes, and skin. Even in this stage, blood tests will not reveal the
antibodies like rheumatoid factor. In this stage Rheumatoid Arthritis can
be diagnosed with imaging diagnostic test.
Stage 3: In this stage, joint pain is increased since the swelling
compress the nerve. The disease condition is severing in this stage. Both
blood test and imaging tests can diagnose. Joints begin to bend and
curve in this stage
Stage 4: This is the last stage of the disease condition. In this stage, all
the joints are affected and no joints are missed from the deformity. if the
disease condition is identified early, the person can be treated.
