I am having pain in both knee joints, so I got my blood tests done for CRP, CPK, Aldolase, and ESR. The results are: ESR is 43, CPK is 80 U/L, Aldolase is 4.40 U/L, CRP is 14.80 mg/L. What do these results indicate about my knee pain?

High ESR and CRP suggest inflammation. Low CPK, normal aldolase point to joint related inflammation. Could be arthritis or viral cause. See rheumatologist.

Take a RA Factor Test (Rheumatoid Factor) Test or Take a ANTI NUCLEAR ANTIBODY (ANA) 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 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?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My RA factor test report is positive. I have been experiencing joint pain in my fingers for the last two days. Six months ago, I visited a specialist at NH Hospital, who said there were no symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.
