Rheumatology is a medical specialty. It essentially
deals with disorders of the musculoskeletal system,
which comprises mainly of the joints, ligaments, muscles
and the soft tissues. Its ramifications, however, cover
all body systems.
There are more than 100 different types of articular
diseases. The spectrum of diseases covers developmental,
infective, inflammatory, degenerative, malignancy, trauma
and other disorders. Effective treatment is available
for most.
