Rheumatological complaints, whether of the joints or soft tissue, represent a large part of the typical GP's work. Many of these complaints occur amongst the elderly and are therefore becoming increasingly common as the number of old people in the population becomes greater. This book is for the GP who wants to extend his knowledge and practical application of rheumatology. It provides a succinct, systematic account of modern rheumatology and gives a practical guide to the management of the common rheumatological disorders, including instructions on giving injections, the use of drugs, physiotherapy, and simple appliances. Manipulative medicine and other alternative therapies are also discussed Although the authors consider that primary care is most appropriate for the management of rheumatological disorders, they also provide clear guidance for those conditions requiring collaboration between GPs and specialists. Readership: general practitioners; student GPs; community physicians; doctors in industry; occupational health physicians.
