[|Human|] My mom has been diagnosed with RA just a week ago.The liver shows an inflammation too.She is not able to even walk.Every passing day a new pain is appearing.Yesterday it was the shoulder.Today she feels her hands are getting tilted.The doctor says that he has started medicine for the liver and only after that the real treatment will start.But she is getting worse everyday.I am very concerned and feeling lost.Kindly guide.
[|AI|]  Hi, Without an exam, I can only give general information. RA tends to affect small joints and not the shoulder. However, it often involves the spine at the neck and this can cause nerve pain going out to the shoulder and can have a serious risk of neurological damage to the spine in this context. X-rays of the spine are good enough to see if there is a serious problem there. And there are a lot of minor and major reasons for pain. But cannot but give general information without actually being there. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
