### Rheumatology DEPARTMENT

A specialty clinic with experienced faculty has been started to provide consultations to patients suffering from arthritis and systemic autoimmune disorders.

Dr. Dhanita Khanna has done her DM in Clinical Immunology & Rheumatology from Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences, Lucknow. She was working as a professor in the department of Clinical Immunology & Rheumatology in Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College and KLES Hospital, Belgaum, Karnataka before joining Sahara hospital as consultant rheumatologist. She has nearly a two decades of experience in treatment of patients with these diseases.

A wide variety of disorders are addressed which include

· Rheumatoid arthritis which is an inflammatory disease that primarily affects the joints and surrounding tissues, but can also affect other organ systems.

· Osteoarthritis which is a degenerative disease of joints and occurs especially in the weight bearing joints of the body like hip, knee and spine.

· Other arthritidies like crystal arthropathies (gout) etc.

· Backache caused by inflammatory disorders like spondyloarthropathies

· Chronic painful conditions involving not the joints but the soft tissues like fibromyalgia, polymyalgia, tendonitis or bursitis.

· Systemic autoimmune diseases like SLE, myositis, vasculitis etc. which have multiorgan involvement.

Besides the dedicated clinicians good diagnostic backup services are available which includes a specialized autoantibody laboratory and high-end radiological facilities.

Management of patients with these disorders is often purely medical with pain killers/anti-inflammatory medicines, immunosuppressive and immunomodulators. Injections in joints or around ligaments and tendons are also offered using steroids and local anesthetic agents. If required surgical expertise is available for simple corrective surgeries to complex surgeries like joint replacements. A dedicated team of physiotherapists and occupational therapists are also available for consultations.

We aim to provide an integrated and holistic care to patients with rheumatological disorders for improved outcome and quality of life.
