Each page explains the symptom patterns that lead to a rheumatology consultation, and the specific conditions considered within that group.
Where is the main problem?
How long has it been going on?
Which of these fits best?
Or go straight to a group:
For ongoing or recurring pain, swelling, warmth or stiffness in the hands, wrists, knees, ankles, feet or other joints — especially when stiffness is worse after rest.
For persistent lower-back or hip pain with morning stiffness, night pain or stiffness after rest that becomes easier as you move.
For persistent dry eyes or mouth, sun-sensitive rashes, mouth ulcers, fingers changing colour in the cold, skin tightening, unexplained dry cough or breathlessness, or symptoms affecting several parts of the body.
For unexplained fever or weight loss, red-purple skin spots, painful ulcers, numbness or weakness, new headaches, sinus or lung symptoms, urine changes, or limb pain that may need specialist evaluation.
For progressive weakness when climbing stairs, getting up from a chair, lifting the arms, carrying objects or swallowing — especially with muscle pain, rash, raised muscle enzymes, dry cough or breathlessness.
For low bone density, fractures after minor injuries, loss of height, or knee, hip, hand or spine pain that is worse with activity and limits movement.
Symptoms of rheumatic conditions overlap. A specialist evaluation is the reliable way to determine what is going on.
