Good night doctor, I have had joint pain for a long time & started feeling very painful around 2010, but still rarely recur. starting last year the relapses were getting more frequent and sicker. Sometimes on the skin of the forearm there are parts of the skin that are dry like scaly redness, but usually disappear in a few days. Now on the chest there is also a dry, scaly skin, initially reddish in color, now it is getting brown and often feels hot from the nights. I want to ask the doctor, is my pain related to rheumatism? Or if not, what department should I go to? Thank you doc
