Hi,

Based on the history you have shared, it can be migratory arthritis or autoimmune condition which may involve multiple sites occasionally and may recur and resolve spontaneously.

Uric acid levels should also be monitored as well as baseline autoimmune profile can be helpful including ANA ESR and CRP as well as RA factor. Meanwhile, OTC analgesics like acetaminophen or Ibuprofen can be helpful.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
