Rheumatology is a subspecialty of internal medicine that focuses on various immune-mediated diseases, primarily affecting the musculoskeletal system. Conditions managed in the Rheumatology Department include inflammatory joint diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, gout, and ankylosing spondylitis, as well as systemic rheumatic diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, dermatomyositis, Beh?et's disease, and vasculitis. The department also provides medical treatment for other pain-related conditions, including back pain, shoulder pain, tendinitis, and osteoporosis.

Our Strengths
Rheumatic diseases are not limited to the muscles, joints, and skeletal system?they can also affect multiple organs, including the skin, kidneys, lungs, and gastrointestinal tract. At the Hyundae Hospital Rheumatology, Pain, and Immunology Clinic, we go beyond joint evaluation to assess the condition of various organs and the immune system. Through detailed diagnostics, we provide personalized treatments such as medication, ultrasound-guided injections, and IV therapy tailored to each patient’s needs. Our board-certified rheumatology specialists not only diagnose and manage musculoskeletal symptoms and multi-organ manifestations to determine whether they are caused by rheumatic diseases and identify the specific condition involved, but also treat age-related inflammatory disorders. These conditions are often associated with significantly increased levels of inflammatory mediators?more than four times higher than in younger individuals?resulting in systemic pain, fatigue, weakness, and immune deficiency. In addition, we are committed to promoting overall health through integrative immune therapy that addresses metabolic diseases, recurrent colds, gastritis, allergies, and nutritional imbalances.
