…It was not until the 16th century that rheumatoid arthritis (abbreviated as RA) was recorded as an independent disease. Currently, the only diseases that bear the name rheumatism are rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic fever (abbreviated as RF), and polymyalgia rheumatica (abbreviated as PR). Of these, rheumatoid arthritis and rheumatic fever are commonly referred to as rheumatism, and the term often refers to the former in particular. Therefore, when simply referring to rheumatism, it is necessary to clarify whether it is being used as a symptom name or a disease name, and if it is used as a disease name, which disease is being referred to. … *Some of the terminology that mentions "polymyalgia rheumatica" is listed below.
