Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case with diligence.
Multiple joint involvement suggest inflammatory arthritis
Possibility of rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing sodalities can be considered
When such patients come to our hospital I advise them blood test like RA factor, ACCP, ESR, complete blood count, HLA B27, ANA.
Rheumatoid arthritis may involve small joints and early morning stiffness in joints, does she have such complain?
Ankylosing spondylitis typically involve spine and hips with other large joint also. There is reduced chest function in this disease. Stiffness in spine is increased does she have such stiffness in spine?
Only right side involvement can be due to vascular involvement.
