My relative who is a 48 yr old female occasionally has an area of redness completely covering her patella and around her knee, very warm to touch, not painful, and not all the way around come up. This happens to both knees at the same time. The other skin is cool to the touch. Any ideas?
Dear friend she is having inflammatory arthritis which needs to be investigated and find the cause to start with a CBC, ESR CRP RA factor should be done and thereafter in consultation with a rheumatologist the further investigation and treatment
