Hello Practo user,
There is nobody called Arthritis specialist.
The history what you are giving points to a disease affecting joints.
You need to consult a Rheumatologist for his problem.
Discuss his condition with the doctor and understand what is the cause and what is the future prognosis.
Until you understand the problem completely, you will not come to a conclusion.
