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.

Your symptoms seem to be related to arthritis. I recommend using anti-inflammatory medication such as Naproxen daily. I also recommend using cold compresses for relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
