Medial epicondylitis, commonly known as "golfer's elbow," is a painful condition that affects the elbow region. Despite its name, this condition is not limited to golfers, as it can affect anyone who makes repetitive movements of the arm and wrist.
Rotator cuff tendinopathy is a painful and debilitating condition that affects the tendons and muscles of the rotator cuff in the shoulder. This condition is common and can range in severity from mild inflammation to more serious tendon injury.
Pes anserine tendinopathy is a painful condition that affects the tendons on the inside of the knee. These tendons connect to the tibia bone, and their function is to allow flexion and stability of the knee. Pes anserine tendinopathy can cause significant pain and discomfort in this area.
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease affecting children and adolescents under the age of 16. It encompasses a spectrum of phenotypes with varying clinical presentations, disease courses, and prognoses.
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an inherited autoinflammatory disease characterized by recurrent episodes of fever, abdominal pain, joint pain, and serositis (inflammation of the membranes that cover certain internal organs, such as the pleura and peritoneum). Familial Mediterranean fever is more common in people of Mediterranean descent.
Mast Cell Activation Syndrome is a condition characterized by the abnormal activation of mast cells, a type of immune cell that releases chemicals like histamine and tryptase in response to various triggers. This excessive release can cause a wide range of symptoms affecting multiple body systems, making Mast Cell Activation Syndrome a complex and often challenging condition to diagnose and manage.
Palindromic rheumatism is a rare form of inflammatory arthritis characterized by repetitive, afebrile episodes of acute arthritis and peri-arthritis.
Whipple's disease is a rare, chronic multisystem illness caused by the bacterium Tropheryma whipplei. Though it primarily affects the gastrointestinal system, it also has widespread systemic involvement, including significant rheumatological manifestations. Diagnosis can be challenging due to its rarity and the nonspecific nature of its early symptoms, which often mimic more common rheumatologic diseases.
