How it presents: It usually involves pain and stiffness in the back or joints, discomfort that may improve with movement, and sometimes fatigue.

When to seek care? When joint or back pain is persistent, improves with activity, or is accompanied by prolonged stiffness.

Which specialist treats it? The rheumatologist focuses on this type of inflammatory disease, and the physical therapist supports the recovery of movement; the general practitioner can guide the first visit. Reviewing these symptoms with a professional helps you better understand the picture.
