Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pain in knee, neck and joints. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like fibromyalgia , fatigue , lupus Pain , rheumatoid , gout , sciatcia or arthritis . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may take histroy , order blood test , urine test and check bone density to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant , anti inflammatory along with medicine like methotrexate and allopurinol . For now take proper rest , keep yourself hydrated and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pin . Apply warm compresses on knee and neck , also take complete bed rest . Drink plenty of water in case of elevated uric acid level .
