What does a Rheumatologist do?
Rheumatologists (ریمیٹولوجسٹ) treat inflammatory and autoimmune disorders of the musculoskeletal system that are systemic in nature—which means that they impact the whole of the body despite affecting a particular joint. These rheumatic disorders impact the skin, nervous system, internal organs, and even the eyes.
In comparison to orthopedics, rheumatologists (ریمیٹولوجسٹ) do not perform surgeries and do not reduce fractures. Additionally, they deal with the chronic and long-term effects of autoimmune disorders especially gout, osteoarthritis, lupus, and chronic back pain.
Rheumatologists rely on the patient's history, physical examination as well as blood tests like serum rheumatoid factor, positive genetic markers, serum antibodies and inflammatory compounds. Additionally, imaging tests prove useful in diagnosis including an x-ray, CT/MRI scan and ultrasound.
ایک ریموٹولوجسٹ کیا کرتا ہے؟
ایک ریموٹولوجسٹ اعصابی نظام کی سوزش اور آٹو امیون عوارض کا علاج کرتا ہے جو سسٹیمک فطرت کے ہوتے ہیں۔ اس کا مطلب یہ ہے کہ وہ کسی خاص جوڑوں کو متاثر کرنے کے ساتھ ساتھ پورے جسم پر اثر ڈالتا ہے۔ یہ رمیٹک عوارض جلد ، اعصابی نظام ، اندرونی اعضاء اور یہاں تک کہ آنکھیں بھی متاثر کرتے ہیں
رتھوپیڈکس کے مقابلے میں ، ریموٹولوجسٹ سرجری نہیں کرتے ہیں اور فریکچر کو ٹھیک نہیں کرتے ہیں۔ مزید برآں، وہ آٹو ایمون ڈس آرڈرز کے دائمی اور طویل مدتی اثرات سے نمٹتے ہیں خاص طور پر گاؤٹ، آسٹیو آرتھرائٹس، لوپس اور دائمی کمر درد۔
ریومیٹالوجسٹ مریض کی ہسٹری، جسمانی معائنہ کے ساتھ ساتھ خون کے ٹیسٹ جیسے سیرم ریومیٹائیڈ فیکٹر، مثبت جینیٹک مارکرز، سیرم اینٹی باڈیز اور سوزش کے مرکبات پر انحصار کرتے ہیں۔ مزید برآں، امیجنگ ٹیسٹ تشخیص میں مفید ثابت ہوتے ہیں جن میں ایکسرے، سی ٹی ایم آر آئی اسکین اور الٹراساؤنڈ شامل ہیں۔
