Hi,
I have gone throug your query.
Get blood tests done including RA factor quantitative, E.S.R, C.R.P, serum uric acid, fasting blood sugar done and send me the report. Till then you can take painkillers but do not take decdan inj.
I hope it helps.
In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link:
