“Probably just age” often delays a doctor visit for months or years. Joint pain and stiffness signal that the body needs help, not only painkillers.
What to watch for
See a specialist if you notice:
- Morning stiffness longer than 30–60 minutes.
- Joint swelling and redness without clear injury.
- Symmetric pain (both hands, both knees).
- General weakness, fever, or unexplained weight loss with joint pain.
What testing shows
Your physician orders CBC, biochemistry, CRP, rheumatoid factor, and other markers as needed. Joint ultrasound and rheumatology consultation help separate inflammatory arthritis from degenerative change and guide therapy.
