  • Systemic symptoms like fever, fatigue, weight loss

  • Severe pain in the morning hours and/or morning stiffness in the joints more than 30 minutes

  • More than 3 joints involved at the same time

  • Skin rash

  • Abdominal pain

An early opinion should be taken, if there is also a family history of rheumatic disease or if symptoms are significantly worsening over a short period of time.
