Arthritis is a disorder that causes pain, stiffness and swelling in or around joints and is a chronic disorder affecting about 15 million Pakistanis and nearly 50 percent of people 65 years - old and older. The disease can strike at any time and without proper care can lead to severe disabilities affecting patients for a lifetime. However, today through early diagnosis and extensive treatment rheumatologists can significantly help prevent disability and death in patients suffering from rheumatic diseases.
Arthritis Care Foundation (ACF) is working in collaboration with Fatima Memorial Hospital Lahore and serving many patients who cannot afford the treatment expenses. This has only been possible through the support of generous donors. Fatima Memorial Hospital hopes to continue its noble mission, and requires huge support.
We urge you to extend your support to towards this cause and help us reduce this painful disease.
