It may be due to overuse of particular muscle may cause sprain or tendinitis. It may be due to pain in the joint due to arthritis. Rheumatological conditions like fibromyalgia or rheumatoid arthritis may present like this. Take rest give support to particular muscle or joint, use cold and warm compression. If symptoms not improved please consult your orthopedician he will take X-ray or MRI of particular joint and treat you accordingly.
