Rheumatologist: A rheumatologist is best qualified to evaluate and treat you. There are various causes of joint pains and he/she will order the appropriate tests and treatment.

See a doctor...: Depending on your history and symptoms your doctor may want an X-ray and / or labs. At your age osteoarthritis would be unlikely but an inflammatory arthritis would be possible.
