When should you see a rheumatologist?
Many people wait months — sometimes years — with symptoms a rheumatologist can diagnose and treat. Ask your doctor for a referral, or call us, if any of these sound familiar:
- Joint pain, stiffness, or swelling that lasts more than a few weeks
- Morning stiffness that takes more than 30 minutes to loosen up
- Swollen, warm, or tender joints with no injury to explain them
- Joint pain along with a rash, psoriasis, or nail changes
- Muscle weakness, unexplained fevers, or extreme fatigue
- Back or neck pain that is worst in the morning and eases as you move
- A positive ANA or rheumatoid factor, or high inflammation markers, on labs from your doctor
- Gout attacks that keep coming back
