What Do You Know About Rheumatic Diseases?

What is a rheumatic disease? A rheumatic disease is an autoimmune and inflammatory condition that causes the body’s immune system to attack a person’s joints, muscles, bones, and organs.

There are about 30 rheumatic diseases and musculoskeletal conditions.¹ Some include juvenile idiopathic arthritis, fibromyalgia, and Raynaud's. It is estimated that by 2040, 78 million US adults would be diagnosed with a rheumatic condition.²

For this Rheumatic Awareness Month, we wanted to shed some light on our rheumatic communities with this small quiz!
