What is Rheumatology?

Rheumatology is the medical specialty that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of rheumatic diseases. These are diseases that affect the joints, bones, muscles, and soft tissues of the body, resulting in pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of function.

Rheumatologists are specially trained physicians who are experts in the diagnosis and treatment of rheumatic diseases. They work closely with other healthcare professionals, including physical therapists, occupational therapists, and orthopedic surgeons, to provide comprehensive care for patients with rheumatic conditions.

When To See a Rheumatologist?

If you are experiencing persistent joint pain, swelling, stiffness, or other symptoms related to your joints, bones, muscles, or soft tissues, it may be time to see a rheumatologist. Some common signs and symptoms that may indicate the need to see a rheumatologist include:

  1. Persistent joint pain: If you have been experiencing joint pain for more than a few weeks, it may be a sign of an underlying rheumatic condition that requires medical attention.

  2. Joint swelling: If your joints are swollen or tender to the touch, it may be a sign of inflammation, which is a common feature of many rheumatic conditions.

  3. Joint stiffness: If you are experiencing stiffness in your joints, especially in the morning or after sitting for long periods, it may be a sign of an underlying rheumatic condition.

  4. Fatigue: If you are feeling unusually tired or fatigued, it may be a sign of an underlying rheumatic condition, especially if it is accompanied by other symptoms such as joint pain or swelling.

  5. Skin rashes: If you are experiencing skin rashes or other skin changes, especially if they are accompanied by joint pain or swelling, it may be a sign of a rheumatic condition such as lupus.

  6. Recurrent fever: If you are experiencing recurrent fever or flu-like symptoms, it may be a sign of an underlying rheumatic condition.

  7. Difficulty with daily activities: If you are having difficulty performing daily activities such as walking, dressing, or using your hands, it may be a sign of an underlying rheumatic condition.

  8. You already have rheumatic diseases: If your disease is not under control, you are not in remission or you have gradually progression of the function loss.

If you are experiencing any of these signs or symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention from a rheumatologist. A rheumatologist can help diagnose and treat your condition and develop a personalized treatment plan to help manage your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
