Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case with diligence.

Your data is insufficient to diagnose any disease.
I may need clinical photo to see for swelling.

Possibility of polyarthritis needs to be considered

When such patients come to our hospital I advise them blood test like RA factor, ACCP, ESR, complete blood count, ESR,CRP,blood sugar level,uric acid.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
