Hi, folks. My friend had some problems with his joints. He went to a doctor and he was redirected to a rheumatologist. After examination, he was diagnosed entesitis. I must admit that I have never heard about this condition before. What kind of condition is it? I would appreciate all your replies.

Hello. Entesitis is just one of the conditions that belong to a group of extraarticular rheumatism. As you can see from the name, these conditions affect structures outside the joint. Entesitis is one of them. Entesitis is an inflammation of the part of tendon. This inflammation affects the part of tendon where it is joined with the bone. These conditions are rare. That is why I don’t know many details. Your friend should discuss this with his rheumatologist. I hope I’ve helped a little. Good luck!
