Hi and thanks for the query,

Fever and joint pain requires that joint or rheumatologic disease be screened for. A past medical and family history could help. History of rheumatoid arthritis or lupus might be required to be known. It s necessary to get a routine HIV test too done. Past history of syphillis or other sexually transmitted disease is important. rare conditions like joint syphillis and reactive arthritis from Chlamydia should be borne in mind.

Screening for rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and other common systemic diseases are most urgent under these circumstances. I suggest you book an appointment with a rheumatologist. Thanks and kind regards.
