When to see a rheumatologist?

You should consider seeing a rheumatologist if you are experiencing symptoms such as persistent joint pain, swelling or stiffness, fatigue, skin rash or limited mobility, especially if these symptoms are not resolving with traditional treatments. Additionally, if you have a family history of autoimmune or rheumatic disease or have been diagnosed with one of these conditions, it is recommended to seek evaluation and ongoing care from a rheumatologist. It is also important to note that joint damage can occur very early if joint pain symptoms are ignored or not treated properly over time. This damage may be permanent and cannot always be reversed with treatment. Therefore, seeking timely evaluation and treatment from a rheumatologist is essential to prevent any long-term damage to your joints.
