### Patient: Doctor, I have been experiencing severe joint pain and swelling. It hurts to even move my hand. What could be wrong?
### Doctor: Based on your symptoms, itâ€™s possible that you have septic arthritis. In order to confirm this, we need to run a few tests. We will need to perform Hematologic tests including Complete blood count (Cbc), Radiographic imaging procedure, specifically a Plain x-ray (X ray). Additionally, we might need to evaluate your Kidney function and Electrolytes panel as well. In the meantime, we will also begin Intravenous fluid replacement to ensure you are properly hydrated.
