A member asked:
Is it safe for patients with rheumatoid arthritis exercise?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and no: It is important for people with rheumatoid arthritis to exercise, but it's also very important that they use correct body mechanics so they don't injure themselves. It is a good idea to talk with your rheumatologist or a physical therapist about what exercises are best for you to do and what you should avoid.
