Our skilled rheumatologists treat a range of conditions related to musculoskeletal and autoimmune disorders.
There are several types of arthritis each with its own set of risk factors and symptoms.
Our specialists have the expertise to develop a personalized treatment plan that helps reduce your pain and inflammation while preserving joint function.
Your physician may also recommend weight loss to reduce the stress on your joints, and exercise to help relieve stiffness and increase mobility. In some cases, your physician may recommend surgery to repair or replace a problematic joint.
Gout is a complex form of inflammatory arthritis that causes severe pain, redness and tenderness in your joints. Gout occurs when there is too much uric acid in your blood. Symptoms of gout include:
Many people experience sudden, painful attacks of gout. However, some people suffer from chronic gout and experience constant, but usually less severe, symptoms.
If you are experiencing symptoms of gout, it is important that you talk to your physician. If left untreated, too much uric acid in your blood can cause more frequent gout attacks and joint damage. In rare case, it can damage your kidneys too. Your physician will complete a thorough evaluation of your symptoms and develop a personalized treatment plan that provides fast pain relief and prevents future attacks.
Autoimmune diseases occur when your immune system malfunctions and "attacks" your healthy cells. In addition to rheumatoid arthritis, the specialists at PinnacleHealth Rheumatology Associates provide comprehensive treatment for a number of autoimmune disorders, including:
Our specialists will use the most up-to-date therapies and medications, including biologic drugs, which target and treat specific components of your immune system. Our goal is to minimize your pain and discomfort to help you live a normal, active life.
