hi,
in sarcoidosis there will be deposition of protein like material in various tissue, including muscles, skin etc, your symptoms of skin and muscles are related to that. sometimes there can be fibrosis also. may be pain killer can just help you, but cant halt the progression of disease. this should be in addition to drugs like steroids or increase the dose of steroids for sarcoidosis to help some extent.
kindly meet your treating physician
wish you good health
