Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been having chronic shoulder pain for the past few months. My Dr prescribed 2 aleve 2x per day along with stretching excercises. That has not helped appreciably. Recently both knees have become sore also. All of a sudden and both sides as with shoulders. I currently am taking glimipiride, metformin and also prevastatin. I don t know of any trauma to the shoulder or knee areas. Any thoughts .?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the major joint involvements are there then it could be rheumatoid arthritis and it need to be ruled out till then "Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg" three times in day can be used, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
