HE
WAS writhing in pain and agony was writ large on the face, but a healing hand protruded
from a free medical camp and assuaged his pain with medication and plain litany
of precautions and exercises.
The Sunday
panacea was not handy for such middle aged patient alone, but for about 100 others too. They
had turned at the camp organized by counseling and awareness for the treatment
of rheumatism and Autoimmune disease and its prevention methods.
Yashoda
Super Specialty Hospital, Kaushambi Ghaziabad, on Sunday, September 16,
organised a one-day free arthritis and rheumatology consultation camp by senior
Rheumatologist of the Dr. Sauvik Das Gupta, formerly at All India
Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi.
Free
consultation was provided to more than 100 patients who participated in the
camp.
Dr.
Sauvik Das Gupta informed the patients, that rheumatoid arthritis and disease
can be identified through tests and the side effects of this can change the
routine of life and proper treatment advice, medicines, and other advanced
methods can stop the progression of the disease.
Dr.
Sauvik also said that rheumatic disease can be found in children also, it can
be prevented by sending the patient to the Rheumatology consultant at the right
time.
In
the camp, the patients told that they are mainly suffering from pain in joints,
stiffness with pain in morning joints, pain in the heel of the foot, joint
locks, especially in the knee and elbows (the inability to move), forming a
solid node under the affected area near the affected joint, the complication of
severe pain in the joints at night.
Dr.

arthritis, they can be relieved of medicines by providing proper treatment.
Nearly 25 patients found that lubricant was found to be finished or decreased.
A
56-year-old Mrs. Raj Kumari (name changed) told that she is not able to hold
even a gas lighter due to illness, and in many patients, the amount of uric
acid was found to be increased.
Mrs.
Kamla (changed name) resident of Lumbini Kaushambi told that she has been
suffering from Rehumatoid Arthritis for the last 15 years and she used to
consult Dr. Sauvik Das for consultation at the All India Institute, New Delhi,
and when she came to know that he is is now available full time at Yashoda Hospital,
Kaushambi ,she came to consult her.
