Yes, ladies, it's a case of the short end of the stick once again. With genetic and environmental factors at play, this autoimmune villain wreaks havoc on the body, especially the delicate small joints, causing swelling, redness, and morning stiffness that could make even the toughest of us wince. But that's not all, folks. Oh no, this rogue also has a penchant for skin troubles, from dryness and fragility to those telltale red palms that can leave you scratching your head in confusion.

But wait, there's more. Dr Dray reveals the exclusive club of rheumatoid arthritis-specific skin conditions, like the mysterious rheumatoid nodules, those smooth bumps that pop up over joints, adding a touch of drama to your hands.

But fear not, dear viewers, for there is hope on the horizon. Dr Dray sheds light on the importance of dermatological evaluation in managing these skin manifestations, ensuring that you're not left to fend for yourself in the face of this autoimmune adversary.
