Hello,

The symptoms in the joints are probably related arthritis. I suggest to check the rheumatoid factor level for further evaluation. Meanwhile, I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day. I also recommend using cold compresses for local application and gentle stretching exercises.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
