Medically reviewed by Tara J. Adhikari, MD, FACR, board-certified rheumatologist · Last reviewed October 2026

Joint pain, swelling and stiffness have many causes. At Cincy Arthritis, Dr. Tara J. Adhikari and our team find out which type of arthritis you have and build a treatment plan around it. Our office is in the Kenwood Professional Building in Blue Ash.

Types of arthritis we treat

  • Rheumatoid arthritis

  • Psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis

  • Gout and pseudogout

  • Lupus and other autoimmune conditions that affect the joints

  • Osteoarthritis

  • Juvenile idiopathic arthritis and reactive arthritis

When to see a rheumatologist

Ask your primary care doctor about a referral if you have:

  • Joint swelling, warmth or redness

  • Morning stiffness that lasts more than 30 minutes

  • Pain in several joints, or the same joints on both sides of the body

  • Joint symptoms along with rash, fever, fatigue or dry eyes and mouth

  • Sudden, severe pain in one joint, often the big toe

Inflammatory arthritis can damage joints if it goes untreated. Early diagnosis gives treatment the best chance of protecting them.

How we diagnose arthritis

Your first visit includes a detailed history and joint exam. Blood work is drawn on site through our in-office LabCorp lab. When needed, we use diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound in the office to look for inflammation that an exam or X-ray can miss.

Treatment at Cincy Arthritis

  • Medications that calm inflammation and slow joint damage

  • Infusions and injectable medications in our on-site infusion suite

  • Ultrasound-guided joint injections

  • Guidance on exercise, weight and bone health

  • Access to autoimmune disease registries and clinical trials
