| Abstrakt: | Abstract: Elite athletes commonly present with joint pains that are attributed to overuse injuries though on occasion it can be due to an inflammatory arthropathy. The diagnostic challenge is that presenting symptoms of benign injuries are similar to inflammatory arthropathies. A holistic review of the athlete can provide clues suggestive of inflammatory arthropathy, before requesting further investigations to confirm the diagnosis. Current imaging modalities are not specific in differentiating inflammatory arthritis with other causes of joint inflammation. Prompt treatment is required to restore the athlete to an optimum level of activity and prevent career ending disability, all in adherence to the regulations of the sporting governing bodies. This review aims to highlight the importance of inflammatory arthropathy in the differentials for an athlete presenting with joint pains.
