Hello Sethu
Thank you for getting in touch with us. As I see, your wife is suffering from joint pains in various joints of the body. Joint pains in various joints of the body can be osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis etc. She would need a complete check up along with some blood tests to ascertain the exact diagnosis. You should also observe if pain in the morning lasts for 10-20 minutes or more than an hour. That would help in differentiating osteoarthritis from rheumatoid arthiritis. Once the diagnosis is made, it can be kept under control with medicines. Hope this helps
Regards
