Frequently Asked Questions

What is rheumatology?

Rheumatology is a medical specialty focused on diagnosing and treating diseases of the joints, muscles, bones, and connective tissues. This includes arthritis, autoimmune diseases like lupus, and other inflammatory conditions that cause pain and affect mobility.

When should I see a rheumatologist?

You should consult a rheumatologist if you experience persistent joint pain, swelling, stiffness (especially in the morning), unexplained fatigue, or have been diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for preventing joint damage.

What treatments are available for arthritis?

Treatment options include anti-inflammatory medications, DMARDs (Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs), biologics, joint injections, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications. Our rheumatologist will create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific condition.

Are autoimmune diseases curable?

While most autoimmune diseases cannot be cured, they can be effectively managed with proper treatment. Our goal is to control symptoms, reduce inflammation, prevent joint damage, and improve your quality of life through comprehensive care.

What tests are done to diagnose rheumatic diseases?

Diagnosis typically involves blood tests (RF, Anti-CCP, ANA, ESR, CRP), imaging studies (X-rays, ultrasound, MRI), and a thorough clinical examination. Our rheumatologist will determine the appropriate tests based on your symptoms and medical history.
