sobrevém em crises


Explanation:
Tânia, penso que o verbo está mal ou é demasiado coloquial. Talvez esclareça a frase colocar o verbo sobrevir, no sentido de ocorrer. O que lhe parece?

Pensava que seria esclarecimento da frase. Eu daria um pouco a volta ao texto: Articular inflammation manifests itself by crisis symptoms.

may flare up/flares up


Explanation:
O tipo de crise visto em doenças articulares inflamatórias é pro vezes chamado de flare.

Não consigo pensar numa frase corrente em inglês para dizer ataca em crise, mas, acredito, se você dizer que a doença inflamatória may flare up ou flares up, você terá transmitido o sentido.

acute onset


Explanation:
"Ataca em crises" está associado à incidência aguda do sintoma, que é a inflamação articular. Minha sugestão, portanto, é utilizar "acute onset" (.
O termo "flare", que foi sugerido em uma das respostas, se restringe à artrite reumatoide, e não ao sintoma de inflamação articular. Ou seja, o "flare" está relacionado à AR, não à inflamação articular - que é um sintoma da AR.
