- Lupus is a complex autoimmune disease that affects various parts of the body. Our rheumatologist works closely with patients to manage symptoms and prevent flare-ups.
During a consultation, the rheumatologist will review your medical history, perform a physical examination, and may order diagnostic tests such as blood tests or imaging studies to determine the cause of your symptoms and develop a personalized treatment plan.
Yes, gout can often be prevented through lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, limiting alcohol intake, reducing purine-rich foods (like red meat and seafood), and staying hydrated. Medications may also be prescribed to manage uric acid levels.
Common early symptoms of lupus include fatigue, joint pain, rashes, and fever. Since lupus can affect multiple organ systems, symptoms may vary widely between patients.
Rheumatoid arthritis is managed through a combination of medications, including disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), biologics, and anti-inflammatory medications, along with lifestyle changes and physical therapy.
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease caused by wear and tear, while rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the joints, causing inflammation and pain.
