You wake up with stiff joints that feel tight and hard to move, like old, rusty door hinges. As the day goes on, the pain only gets worse. Climbing stairs, opening jars, and even getting up from a chair take more effort than before. You might brush it off, thinking, “It’s just age catching up with me.”
But what if it’s more than that?
At Apex Hospitals, Jaipur, we often meet people who ignore these early signs, only to seek help when the discomfort turns into daily pain. In this blog, we’ll discuss when it’s time to see a rheumatologist, which symptoms to watch out for, and how early treatment can make a significant difference in protecting your joints in the long run.
