I am 18 years old. Suddenly, my leg got swollen, and my joints started hurting. Now my wrists and shoulders also ache, especially in the morning. I consulted a doctor and did blood tests, but everything came back normal. Why am I experiencing joint pain, and what should I do?

Could be early arthritis, post viral, or autoimmune issue. Repeat RA Factor, CRP, and Vitamin D. Use mild pain relievers and apply warm compress.

Take a RA Factor Test (Rheumatoid Factor) Test or Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test

My wife has pain in her wrists, hands, finger joints, and shoulders. She is 33 years old. Her recent test results are: RA factor positive, CRP positive, ESR 14 mm/hr (normal range 0 to 20), vitamin D, uric acid, calcium, and other tests are normal. She has not done Anti CCP antibody test yet. What are the next steps? We are worried because her RA factor is positive.

I have suffered from rheumatoid arthritis for the last 2 years. Today my blood test report shows ESR 40 and eosinophils 07. Is it ok?

I have spondylosis and total body joint pain, including left leg muscle pain, hands, legs, feet, hips, ribs, and overall bone pain. One month ago I had dengue fever. Are these symptoms related to dengue? My fever is completely gone and my platelets and blood report are now normal. Please suggest which doctor I should consult now a spine surgeon or another specialist?
