if a patient has pain plus loss of active and passive motion it is?
articular joint pain
locking deformitity in articular joint pain

what is gelling? when do you become concerned about an inflammatory process as compared to degenerative
gellling: stiffness and limitedmotion after use
In degenerative only lasts a few minutes
In inflam, >30 mins
Can also occur with fibromyalgia and polymyalgia rheumatoid arthritis
