hai,your mother is in peri menopausal problems,one factor for the pain can be due to hormonal imbalance
raised ESR can be due to any chronic infection in the body
please check out with your sugar,thyroid levels,CRP, RA FACTOR,Urea,creatinine,calcium,hb,electrolyte levels
this can be due to any joint inflammatory problem,or any viral unknown fever also,which usually resolves usually with a course of antibiotics & steroids.
takecare
