Had this condition for over a year. Is it age?
Brief Answer:
It could be age related
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
Indeed advancement of age is associated with multiple problems including degenerative changes and that could indeed be a cause of the pain that you are facing. However, electrolyte imbalances are frequently seen in such an age and could have similar presentations. I would insist you to apply hot compress and to take juicy fruits (contain potassium) and see if that makes a difference. If not, visit a doctor. He would be able to examine you and intervene accordingly.
Hope that helps.
