Diagnostic tests for Joint pain:

Various tests are used in the diagnosis of Joint pain. Some of these are listed below :

  • Physical examination
    • A systematic examination of the affected joint or joints looking for signs of inflammation, deformity, swelling and reduced range of motion - e.g. tenderness and warmth indicates inflammation; redness of the skin over the joint indicates gout, pseudogout, rheumatic fever or septic arthritis.
    • Note the pattern of the joints affected which can assist in diagnosis
    • Full physical examination looking for signs of systemic disease that can predispose or present with joint pain - e.g. rash and pitted nails of psoriasis; Raynaud's phenomenon of systemic sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus; doughnut-shaped rash of Lyme disease; butterfly rash of systemic lupus erythematosus; abdominal tenderness of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease; heart murmur of rheumatic fever or subacute bacterial endocarditis.
  • Blood tests

Diagnosis Checklist: Questions your doctor may ask (and why!)

During a consultation, your doctor will use various techniques in their assessment of Joint pain. Your doctor may ask several questions when assessing your condition. It is important to remember that your consultation is a two-way process and any extra information you can share with your doctor about your symptoms may help them with their diagnosis. Some of the questions your doctor may ask are listed below:

  • How long have you had joint pain? - to determine if acute or chronic.
  • Is the joint pain localized to one joint? - would suggest septic arthritis, gout, tuberculosis, hemophilia, sickle cell disease, trauma, avascular necrosis and pseudogout.
  • Is it symmetrical or asymmetrical?
  • Which joints are involved?
  • Is the joint pain migratory? - i.e. joint pain moves from joint to joint? - may suggest rheumatic fever.

See Diagnosis Checklist for Joint pain (36 listings)

Diagnosis Checklist: Associated symptoms your doctor may ask about (and why!)

Sometimes, other symptoms may be present and may help your doctor analyse your condition. The symptoms your doctor may ask about (in association with Joint pain) may include:

  • Fever? - may suggest septic arthritis, rheumatic fever, gonococcal arthritis, Reiter's syndrome, lupus erythematosus, Lyme arthritis, polymyalgia rheumatica, Still's disease and rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Urethral discharge? - would suggest Reiter's syndrome or gonococcal arthritis.
  • Low back pain? - would suggest rheumatoid spondylitis, ochronosis or gout.
  • Recent diarrhea? - may suggest enteropathic arthritis (such as due to Ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease) or Reiter's syndrome.
  • Skin rash? - may suggest psoriatic arthritis, gonococcal arthritis or HIV infection.
