Rheumatology
Rheumatology
The Rheumatology Department at HNC Hospitals specializes in the diagnosis and non-surgical management of autoimmune diseases, systemic inflammatory conditions, and musculoskeletal disorders. Our rheumatologists utilize modern disease-modifying therapies and biologic drugs to control joint inflammation and prevent permanent joint damage.
Autoimmune & Rheumatic Disorders We Treat
We provide specialized long-term care for complex inflammatory ailments:
- Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA): Early aggressive therapy with DMARDs and biologics to control joint swelling and pain.
- Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE): Multi-organ lupus management targeting skin, joint, and renal manifestations.
- Ankylosing Spondylitis & Axial SpA: Targeted therapies for chronic inflammatory spine pain and morning stiffness.
- Gout & Crystal Arthropathies: Urate-lowering therapy and joint inflammation management.
- Vasculitis & Scleroderma: Comprehensive care for systemic sclerosis, Raynaud’s phenomenon, and vascular inflammation.
Early Diagnosis & Joint Preservation
Early consultation is essential; timely initiation of disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) halts joint destruction and preserves physical independence.

What is the difference between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis?
Rheumatoid Arthritis is an autoimmune inflammatory disease affecting joint linings across multiple joints. Osteoarthritis is mechanical wear-and-tear of cartilage in weight-bearing joints.
What are early signs of Rheumatoid Arthritis?
Joint pain, swelling, warmth, and persistent morning joint stiffness lasting longer than 30 to 60 minutes are hallmark early symptoms.

Yes. Biologic therapies target specific inflammatory pathways and provide dramatic symptom relief and joint protection in severe or resistant autoimmune cases.
