I was diagnosed with AS and had started taking treatment for it…but I had lost about the pain that I was having. And so i started consulting a LivLong Rheumat for the same. Trust me with their way of communication and the changes made by them in the treatment plan, have changed my life completely….thank you so much for that!

My mother started experiencing pain in her joints and that is the reason why I switched to online consultations so she doesn’t have to move much. I must say the treatment methods used by the Doctors have really helped mom and she is also really happy to take these consultations…

Know Your Rheumatologist

A rheumatologist is a doctor who specialises in diagnosing and treating the disorders of the joints, bones, and muscles, such as arthritis, lupus, and osteoporosis. They treat patients with autoimmune diseases, inherited connective tissue disorders, soft tissues, and immune‑mediated disorders related to the musculoskeletal system.

Disorders treated by rheumatologist

Rheumatologists treat a range of disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, lupus, gout, osteoporosis, psoriatic arthritis, scleroderma, vasculitis, and autoimmune diseases. Rheumatologists also treat inflammatory muscle diseases and soft tissue rheumatism. They work to relieve pain and inflammation, improve mobility, and prevent permanent joint damage.

Why do you need to see a rheumatologist?

You should consult a rheumatologist if you are experiencing persistent joint pain, swelling, or stiffness. Other symptoms which necessitate a visit to a rheumatologist include fatigue, weakness, fever, and weight loss. If you have a family history of rheumatic diseases or have experienced symptoms of any of these conditions for more than 6 weeks, it is advisable to opt for rheumatologist consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

To consult a rheumatologist online, you need to first find a telemedicine platform, such as LivLong, that offers rheumatology services. Then, book an appointment and prepare a list of symptoms and medical history to discuss during the online rheumatologist consultation.

To choose the best rheumatologist in India, you can follow these steps:

  • Consult with friends or family members who have visited a rheumatologist in the past.
  • Check the qualifications and experience of the rheumatologists you are interested in through their websites or medical directories.
  • Look for doctors who are affiliated with reputable hospitals.
  • Read patient reviews and ratings to get an idea of their past operations and treatment outcome.
  • A rheumatologist typically does not perform any surgery but may refer a patient to a specialist for surgical intervention if necessary.

    No, rheumatologists and orthopaedic doctors are not the same. An orthopaedic doctor can only treat bone- and joint-related problems, whereas a rheumatologist in addition to musculoskeletal diseases can also treat rashes, systemic autoimmune disorders, and unexplained fever.

    Some of the autoimmune diseases a rheumatologist may treat include rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic fever, lupus, psoriatic arthritis, scleroderma, multiple sclerosis, polymyositis, Sjogren's syndrome, vasculitis, and Type 1 diabetes. They can also manage associated conditions such as osteoporosis and gout.

    No, a rheumatologist is not considered a specialist surgeon. They can only treat disorders with non-invasive procedures like medications, exercise, and change in lifestyle.
