Joint pain, stiffness, or swelling may seem like minor discomfort at first — but for many patients, these symptoms reflect complex underlying conditions that require specialized evaluation. Autoimmune and inflammatory diseases often affect multiple systems beyond just the joints.
As an experienced Internal Medicine Specialist in Dubai, Dr. Jadeer Akkapparambil provides comprehensive evaluation and management of joint disorders, arthritis, and rheumatological conditions. His approach focuses on identifying the underlying cause of your symptoms, offering clear explanations, and building long-term care plans that help manage both pain and disease progression.

Chronic Joint Pain with Systemic Symptoms
“Joint pain is often a signal of deeper systemic inflammation. My role is to carefully evaluate the full clinical picture — not just the joints and guide patients toward long-term control, stability, and quality of life.”
–Dr. Jadeer Akkapparambil
If joint pain is persistent, worsening, accompanied by swelling, stiffness (especially morning stiffness), or affects multiple joints, full evaluation is recommended to rule out inflammatory or autoimmune causes.
While some forms like osteoarthritis cannot be fully reversed, early treatment can greatly slow progression. Autoimmune arthritis (like RA) can be controlled effectively with disease-modifying therapies.
No. Autoimmune conditions often affect multiple organ systems including skin, kidneys, lungs, and blood vessels which is why full systemic evaluation is important.
In some cases, yes particularly for autoimmune diseases. However, medications are carefully adjusted to minimize side effects while keeping disease activity controlled.
If you are experiencing joint pain, stiffness, or systemic symptoms suggestive of autoimmune disease, schedule a comprehensive evaluation today.
