When to consult a rheumatologist
Rheumatologists treat immune and inflammatory disease of the joints, muscles and connective tissue — rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, ankylosing spondylitis, gout, vasculitis and osteoporosis. They treat with medication and monitoring rather than surgery; joint replacement is an orthopaedic decision.
- Joint pain with morning stiffness lasting more than an hour
- Swelling in several joints at once
- A positive ANA or RA factor, or raised inflammatory markers
- Unexplained rash, fever and joint pain together
- Osteoporosis, or fractures that keep happening
