Thanks for consulting. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.

the tiredness that you are currently facing may be because of the low iron content. you must be having ergonomic complaint based on the work either job or house chore you are doing.
for the pain you can take diclofenac 50 mg tablets
and also can use local application of diclofenac gel.
hot compression can also help

if pain persist for long time you can go for physiotherapy.


Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.

Have a wonderful time ahead.


Best Regards!
