How To Treat Severe Joints Pain All Over The Body?
I am having problems with every joint in my body. I have tested negative for rheumatism. I am 45. When I was 25 I was shocked by 440 volts, It went in left hand went across chest and shot white light and sparks out of my right armpit. It seems like that was the beginning of my problems and they continue to get worse. do you think it is possible the shock was the cause?

Hi
Thanks for the query
It is very very unlikely to be as a consequence of electric shock that was 20 years before.
Consulting a rheumatologist / psychiatrist might help
Sometimes longstanding psychological issues can give rise to such joint symptoms, but before coming to the conclusion one must have a thorough physical investigation and check up
Hope I was of some help in addressing your question
