Are Fatigue On Regular Days Without Unusual Exertion And Intermittent Knee Pain Something Serious?
HI. My 19-year-old son complain of fatigue a few months ago. I assumed that he was just tired from having a full load in college as an engineer student and working delivering pizza three to four nights a week. This weekend he complain to me that his knees are hurting. He doesn t play any sports and hasn t had any injuries. He just left for work about 30 minutes ago and told me again that his knees are hurting him

Hello,
It is necessary consulting with an rheumatologist for a physical exam and performing some tests for inflammation (complete blood count, PCR, ESR, vitamin D plasma levels, etc.).
Further tests may be needed.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
