What Treatments are Available to Reduce Synovial Inflammation?
Treatment options for reducing synovial inflammation include medications, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and corticosteroids are commonly used to alleviate symptoms. Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and biologics target specific components of the immune system to halt disease progression. Histological studies can play a role in assessing the effectiveness of these treatments by observing changes in synovial tissue.
