I have stiff joints ( hips,knee, shoulders, and back ) It is painful and the doctors have ruled out RA or any kind of diseases that may cause this condition. I originally went on two long extended hikes up some mountains and my groin area became very stiff and I could hardly walk. This took 2 months to clear up and left me feeling stiff and sore in the areas I mentioned above. I take pain meds to help get through the days. I am 67 years old male and have enjoyed hiking, biking, and walking for years. I am not sure where to turn next. Can you give me some direction. I have never had this happen before and maintained a healthy active life. I have had two knee surgeries from basketball injuries while younger and one shoulder surgery about 6 years ago. These surgeries were successful and I healed up fine.
