The treatment is usually medicated, intra-articular injections of certain medications, education and counseling of the patient about rheumatic disease, the undesirable effects of possible therapy. A rheumatologist should be visited at the lowest suspicion of rheumatic disease, and there are certainly opportunities to discover other diseases that have rheumatic disorders.
