Treatment for AOSD typically involves the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to control inflammation and pain, and corticosteroids to suppress the immune system. Other medications, such as disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), can also be used to reduce inflammation and prevent joint damage.
AOSD is a chronic condition, but with proper management, many people with the disease can lead normal, active lives. If you are experiencing symptoms of AOSD, it is important to seek medical attention promptly and/or visit SGH RHI, as early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent complications and improve outcomes.
