Rheumatology treatments in Pune & Pimpri-Chinchwad
Rheumatology covers more than a hundred diagnoses. They fall into six groups, and which group a patient belongs to determines the tests, the drugs and the urgency. Each page below explains one group properly.
Six treatment areas
Find the group your symptoms belong to
Rheumatic diseases group by how they behave, not by which joint hurts. Finding the right group is most of the diagnosis.

What treatment is for
The target is not fewer painkillers. It is a disease that has stopped moving.
Every treatment group below is run to a measured target, reviewed on a date set in advance, and escalated if that target is missed — rather than continued because the last prescription was tolerable.
