Frequently Asked Questions
What does a rheumatologist do?
Diagnoses and treats 100 + autoimmune and joint diseases with lab tests, imaging, medicines, injections and rehabilitation.
When should I see a specialist?
If joint pain or stiffness lasts more than two weeks, if a joint becomes red or swollen, or if you have a family history of autoimmune disease.
Do I need a referral?
Which tests are usually ordered?
ESR, CRP, rheumatoid factor, anti-CCP, ANA, HLA-B27 and imaging such as X-ray, ultrasound or MRI.
Is rheumatoid arthritis curable?
Not yet, but early disease-modifying therapy often achieves long-term remission.
Are biologic drugs covered by insurance?
Most insurers reimburse partially or fully; RxDx processes cashless claims and offers EMI plans for any balance amount.
Is exercise safe with arthritis?
Yes. Low-impact activities such as water aerobics, cycling and supervised strength training improve function; avoid high-impact moves during flares.
Can AI diagnose arthritis from an X-ray?
AI tools highlight early changes, but a rheumatologist confirms the diagnosis and customises treatment.
