Still Disease
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
With a high fever that comes and goes, joint pain, and a fleeting skin rash, an evaluation is worthwhile, since this set of signs may correspond to Still's disease. It is a rare inflammatory condition that can affect both children and adults.
Characteristic features:
- fever that rises and falls throughout the day
- pain and swelling of the joints
- a salmon-colored rash that comes and goes
- a general feeling of illness and tiredness
Who treats it? The rheumatologist is the central specialist; in childhood the pediatrician takes part, and the internist or the allergist may collaborate depending on the features of the case.
Because its symptoms resemble those of other conditions, it is best to have a professional study them calmly to guide the diagnosis appropriately.
