What is Rheumatology?

At Mallige Hospital, our rheumatologists provide expert care using advanced diagnostics and targeted therapies to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and preserve joint function.

Comprehensive Autoimmune Care

Rheumatology

Our department offers personalised treatment plans for conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, gout, and connective tissue diseases. We utilize joint ultrasound, and specialised blood tests to accurately diagnose and monitor disease activity.

Treatments include disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), intra-articular injections, and tailored physical therapy to maintain mobility and quality of life.

Collaborating with orthopaedic surgery, pain medicine, and rehabilitation specialists, we ensure a multidisciplinary approach for managing complex rheumatic disorders.
