Arthritis: You are having some type of arthritis. Your doctor can do blood test, an exam and possibly X-rays to determine the best treatment for you. Get in right away.

Joint vs muscle: In this situation a rheumatologist will look at both joint and muscle involvement. One always thinks about arthritis but there may be other causes of the symptoms. Your evaluation will take all of this into consideration.
