Question: would like to talk with a doctor dealing with bone stress reactions and ligaments not related to sports accident
Brief Answer:
Joint Hypermobility
Detailed Answer:
Good evening
thank you for writing on health care magic
Well, the sort of symptoms you are describing does look like Beningn Joint hypermobility syndrome as it characterstic symptoms of joints cracking along with stiffness and increased aches after activity. Considering you have extensively evaluated for all sorts of arthritis with no cause found, it is less likely to be a serious one but then again something is troubling you. So we need to give you the diagnosis where you can work upon
I could not find the reports of your bone scan on here. If you could attach it along with the other arthritis reports that would be helpful
Secondly, I would like you to test yourself with Beighton score, you can find it on google( joint hypermobility) and see how many joints fit in with you. That would more or less give us the diagnosis.
Do let me know these 2 queries. Would guide you further on how to manage it once we have the diagnosis
PS: Dont stress your joints out by those clicking sounds or else it will keep putting stress on the cartilage underneath
Await your reply
Regards
