Rheumatic symptoms are actually a very broad concept, and usually there are many types of rheumatism, including degenerative rheumatism, inflammatory rheumatism, autoimmune rheumatism, and genetically related rheumatic diseases. In short, the main affected parts of rheumatism are joints, tendons, and ligaments, so the symptoms of such patients may be joint pain, swelling, morning stiffness or joint deformation, in addition to joint involvement, many rheumatic diseases may also have other organs involved, and the corresponding clinical manifestations of the affected organs appear, such as lung involvement, chest tightness, cough, heart involvement may have palpitations, pain in the chest area, kidney involvement may have positive urine protein, etc.

The main symptoms of rheumatism include joint symptoms, such as swelling and pain in the joints of the limbs, and morning stiffness in the morning. In addition, lupus erythematosus and vasculitis may also have special rashes, such as symmetrical erythema on the face, dermatomyositis patients may have rashes on the extensor side of the joints, and vasculitis patients may have rashes in different positions of the limbs. Patients with rheumatism may also have unexplained high fever, low fever, hair loss, regurgitated mouth ulcers, dry mouth, dry eyes, and swollen and painful parotid glands.

For example, rheumatoid arthritis is mainly manifested as pain in the joints of the wrist, palm, finger and toe, and the nature of the pain is multiple joints, symmetrical and persistent pain; Ankylosing spondylitis is characterized by asymmetrical, persistent pain in the hip, sacrum, knee, and ankle joints. Rheumatism is characterized by soreness and pain that varies with the weather and seasons.

Immune inflammatory reactions of varying degrees can cause damage to various tissues and organs, seriously affecting their normal function. Even fatal damage.

Guidance: Diagnosis and diagnosis are difficult, and the goals should include symptom relief, improvement of condition, restoration of function, improvement of quality of life, and prolonging the patient's life as much as possible. Since most rheumatic diseases are not yet available, it is necessary to seek the cooperation of patients and persist in ** for a long time. **Methods include medications, physiotherapy, rest and exercise, orthopaedics and surgery.

It is necessary to educate patients to understand their own conditions and cooperate**.

Fever: may have high fever, moderate fever.

Isobaric or low-grade fever, often accompanied by hyperhidrosis. Arthritis: The typical manifestation is migratory arthritis, which often affects large joints such as knees, ankles, shoulders, and elbows, and may be locally red, hot, swollen, and painful.

After the redness and swelling subside, no permanent lesions remain, and joint function can be fully restored. Atypical patients only have joint soreness. Carditis:

Carditis includes myocarditis, endocarditis and pericarditis, with symptoms ranging from palpitations, chest tightness, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, and even inability to lie down. On examination, the heart may be enlarged, the first heart sound may be diminished, and a systolic or diastolic murmur may be heard at the apex. Pericarditis may be painful in the precordial area, and a pericardial friction rub may be heard in the precordial area.

**Lesions: annular erythema, seen on the trunk or proximal limbs, in an irregular circle, red around, **light, disappearing within 1-2 days, can recur. Subcutaneous nodules are found in the long bony prominences near the joints, are symmetrically distributed, and are raised under the skin, with non-adhesion and varying numbers.

It is painful and usually goes away within a few weeks. Chorea disease: involuntary, uncoordinated, and purposeless movement of muscles during an attack, which is common in girls and is a cerebral symptom of rheumatism.

1.Most of the rheumatism is related to joint lesions and symptoms, which can be as high as 70-80%, and about 50% only have pain, and the severe ones are redness, swelling, heat, pain and impaired function. Usually multi-articular involvement. The size of the affected joints varies depending on the type of disease.

2.Heterogeneity, that is, there are different subtypes of the same disease, due to different genetic backgrounds, different causes of onset, and different mechanisms, so the types of clinical manifestations, symptoms, severity and ** reactions are also different.

3.Rheumatism is mostly a multi-system disease, and the pathology of many diseases is often overlapping, and the symptoms are similar, such as MCTD is typical of this manifestation.

4.A variety of antibodies and immune complexes (CICs) appear in the serum, and can be deposited in tissues (**, synovium) or organs (kidney, liver) to cause disease.

5.Raynaud's phenomenon is often seen in this type of disease, such as SLE and MCTD.

Rheumatism refers to a type of disease that mainly affects muscle and joint pain. Mainly affects the connective tissue of the body and can be caused by damage to the immune system. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it is caused by wind, cold, dampness, heat and other external evils invading the human body and blocking the meridians

1.Wind paralysis: It mainly feels the wind evil, invades the skin, joints, and meridians, and is characterized by unstable clinical pain. Because the wind is yang and evil, "the upper part receives it first", so it mostly occurs in the upper limbs, shoulders and backs; Weiyang is not solid, and the knees are empty, so there is a bad wind, and the disease of the Han is out.

2.Cold paralysis: mostly due to the lack of yang qi, feeling the cold evil, its manifestations are characterized by limb joint pain, and it is fixed, aggravated by cold, and the heat pain is reduced or relieved. In addition, due to the cold main induction, its sexual stagnation, so it is often combined with cold, limb spasm, unfavorable flexion and extension, and tight pulse.

3.Dampness: Mainly felt by dampness, dampness remains between limbs, joints, and skin, and the clinical manifestations are characterized by swelling, pain, numbness and numbness in the above parts. Because the spleen is mainly damp, and the dampness is sticky, which hinders the qi machine, so it is common to see the symptoms of the spleen not transporting dampness, such as heavy and heavy head, chest tightness and sluggishness, abdominal distension and fatigue, greasy, slow pulse, etc.

4.Heat paralysis: It is mainly the evil of feeling heat or dampness, or the evil of wind, cold and dampness entering the body to dissolve heat, and is characterized by redness, swelling, heat and pain of muscles and joints, accompanied by body heat, sweating, thirst, yellow and greasy tongue, and slippery pulse. Because heat is yang evil, it is easy to hurt yin and jin, so the redness and swelling are obvious, and there are often symptoms such as erythema, nodules, thirst, and dry stools.

5.Dryness: It is mainly caused by feeling dryness and evil, or due to the evil of yang heat, which causes the muscles, muscles, bones and joints to lose their Confucian nourishment. Because of the lack of yin blood and fluid, and the loss of muscles, bones and joints in Confucianism, the main clinical characteristics are thin muscles, unfavorable joints, dry mouth and nose, and dry and astringent eyes.

6.Wind cold and dampness:

The combination of wind, cold, dampness and evil is the original meaning of "cold and dampness are mixed together and paralyzed". It is necessary to distinguish which of the three is more important than the other. If wind and dampness are the main ones, it is called "rheumatism".

If cold and dampness are the main ones, it is called "cold and dampness"; If the wind, cold and dampness are both important and the three gases are combined, it is called "wind, cold and dampness".

7.Damp heat paralysis:

Feel the evil of dampness and heat, or the evil qi such as wind, cold and dampness will be depressed for a long time and turn heat into exchange.

Clinically, the general and heat paralysis is mostly damp heat paralysis. Its clinical manifestations are a combination of dampness and heat paralysis. Classification by location; A traditional method of classifying lesions based on their location. As early as in the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", it is known as the five internal organs and the five body paralysis, and it has been used to this day.
