Rheumatology is a specialized field of medicine focused on diagnosing and treating conditions characterized by inflammation affecting bones, muscles, joints, and internal organs. It encompasses over 100 complex diseases, collectively referred to as rheumatic diseases. These include various forms of arthritis, lupus, and Sjogren's syndrome. Physicians specializing in rheumatology, known as rheumatologists, undergo formal training to manage these diverse conditions.
Many of these diseases are understood to be immune system disorders, highlighting the close relationship between rheumatology and immunology, the branch of medicine dedicated to studying the immune system.
