Hello,
I have studied her case. I think she is having inflammatory arthralgia. In this condition there is pain and stiffness in multiple joints. To confirm this we need to get following tests.
CRP
ESR
RA FACTOR
ASLO
After these tests if she is having positive inflammatory marker then she needs to take HCQ,saaz. But she should also mere sure that she discuss with paediatrician if these drugs will harm her baby or not.
Thanks.
