About this condition
Joint pain and stiffness most often affect the knees, hands, hips and lower back. It may be worse in the morning, after rest, or in cold weather, and there are several different underlying causes that behave quite differently.
How a consultation works
The doctor asks which joints, at what time of day, and what eases it, then examines movement in the affected joints. Blood tests or an X-ray may be suggested, since the cause changes what is sensible to do next.
