Research Notes on Stress Related to Rheumatoid Arthritis
Stress does not directly cause rheumatoid arthritis (RA). There are, however, reported cases of RA being preceded by stressful or traumatic events. It has been noted that these incidences occur within six months prior to onset of RA. It has also been noted in studies done in the past that stress increases one's sensitivity to pain thereby exacerbating the painful symptoms of the disease.
