can you have ra, with pain, swelling , tingling, burning , but not red, or hot joint
I have ra, and lupus, I have pain, swelling, tingling, burning, muscle ache, but my joint are not red or hot to the touch. My ra doctor said, I'm in remission. But my body doesn't feel that way. Everyday it hitting another spot on my body.
Definitely! You can definitely have RA without the red joints or burning joints. In fact I didn't start having red burning joint until my RA became severe. Did you talk to your doctor about why he believes you are in remission? It could be that your inflammation levels have lowered and your doctor believes that to mean you are in remission. If you are getting treatment regardless, then no worries. But if you believe that you still have active RA and aren't getting adequate treatment, then see another doctor. Nobody knows your body better than you. I hope for some relief for you soon! Good luck, and best wishes!
