I Have Back, Knees, And Hips
I have RA in both knees, back, ankles, wrist. I've had RA since 2014.
RA and ITP can sometimes occur together as autoimmune conditions. Here's what you should know:
Both conditions involve your immune system
Some medications (like corticosteroids) can help manage both conditions
Exercise is important but should be gentle during flares
Tell all your doctors about both conditions
Watch for bruising with ITP when doing physical therapy
Always work with both your rheumatologist and hematologist to coordinate care. They can help create a safe treatment plan that addresses both conditions.
