I would suggest you seek opinion from a rheumatologist. There will be a battery of test to properly diagnosing your problems as there are chronic inflammatory bowel disease with associated chronic inflammatory joint diseases. Even after diagnosis you will need to take separate consultation from various specialists to effectively managing your symptoms.
