Good day. I am female and 35 years of age. My joints hurt. It started in my fingers and now my wrists, elbows, knees. Also just above my heels on the backside of my legs. It just does not want to come right. It has been weeks some days are better then other. When should I go see a docter?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Pain in multiple joints mean polyarthritis, there are a lot of causes like infection, or autoimmune arthritis. This need more detailed evaluation as what could be the cause, however this is not an emergency, you can have an appointment with your doctor when feasible.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
