Your Questions Answered

Real Talk from Altor's Joint Experts

Understanding your joint, muscle, and bone health is a crucial step towards reducing pain and living more actively. Here are clear, straightforward answers from our expert team at Altor to common questions about Rheumatology.

A Rheumatologist is a doctor who specializes in joint pain, muscle pain, and diseases that affect your bones and connective tissues. They are experts in conditions like arthritis (including Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis), Lupus, Gout, and Fibromyalgia. If your pain isn't going away or seems to be linked to inflammation, they're the ones to see.

Not necessarily! While arthritis (inflammation of joints) is a common cause, joint pain can also come from muscle strains, tendon issues, or other conditions. A Rheumatologist can accurately diagnose the specific cause of your joint pain, whether it's simple wear-and-tear or a more complex inflammatory condition.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is often called "wear-and-tear" arthritis. It happens when the cartilage that cushions your joints breaks down over time, usually affecting older adults. Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), on the other hand, is an autoimmune disease, meaning your body's immune system mistakenly attacks your own joints, causing inflammation and pain. RA can affect anyone at any age.

Treatment plans vary for each person. For inflammatory conditions like Rheumatoid Arthritis, medications (including modern "biologic" therapies) are often crucial to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and prevent joint damage. We always aim to use the most effective treatment with the fewest side effects, and we'll carefully explain all your options. Our goal is to help you live comfortably.

 Yes! Fibromyalgia is a common condition characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and other symptoms. While it's not an inflammatory condition like arthritis, Rheumatologists are often key in diagnosing and managing it. We use a holistic approach, combining medication, lifestyle advice, and other therapies to help manage your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
