Suggest Treatment For Severe Muscle Pain And Knee Pain

I am experiencing muscle aches everyday. I have a herniated disc in my neck and the pain has radiated to my arms.I have carpel tunnel. I was wondering if eating too much oxalate foods is causing this discomfort everyday. I feel cracking in my legs (behind the knees). I don t know what to do at this time.

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello, Hope you have had a complete blood profile done. Are you a diabetic?If you are then persistent high blood sugar levels cause neurological pains which needs good control of diabetes and Vitamin BI B6 B12 supplements.Too much of oxalate foods sure can cause deep muscle pains and especially if you have high serum uric acid levels should cut down on red meat fish and vegetables.
You have a herniated disc and carpal tunnel and since the pains radiate down the limbs till the hand then this should be addressed first.Surgical option could be taken if the pain is severe, radiating down to the hand and MRI shows a disc pressing on the nerve.
Cracking in the knees itself is harmless but could be associated with an osteoarthritis.
So this the situation now keep going with tabs like celecoxib, pregabilin, xyloric acid,diet control as mentioned
