What Causes Knee Pain With A Normal X-ray And Blood Test Report?
My knees have ached since childhood-on and off. The doctors told me it was growing pains. I have had an x-ray and blood tests but nothing shows up. I am now 28 and still experience these pains and also in other joints. It seems to be more painful when I am on my period. Ibuprofen helps and paracetamol does not-so I assume there s inflammation. Weather conditions also can bring pain on.

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Painful joints can be related to arthritis.
I suggest to check the rheumatoid factor level for further evaluation.
Meanwhile,I suggest to use anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation.
Cold compresses can also be helpful.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
