I'm a bit worried because my ESR is reading at 21mm, and I know the maximum normal value is supposed to be under 14mm. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could you help me understand what this means for my health?

I'm experiencing something a bit oddmy feet swell up every evening but then go back to normal by the morning, and there's no pain with it. I usually go for walks both in the morning and evening. A while back, my right knee was swollen and painful, and I massaged it with sarson oil, which helped the knee, but now my feet are having this issue. I did the RA factor test, and it came back negative. My cholesterol is at 215.11 mgdl, but otherwise, my reports were normal. I'm just wondering what could be causing this swelling in my feetany insights?
Consider consulting a md physician to rule out underlying conditions, and in the meantime, try elevating your legs above the level of your heart while sitting, reducing salt intake, staying hydrated, and wearing compression socks to alleviate evening foot swelling, which may be related to your evening walks, improved knee condition, or elevated cholesterol.

I've been feeling really concerned lately about some joint pain I've been having. I'm 48 years old, and I've started experiencing pain in my knee joints. Along with that, the small joints in my fingers are also hurting and feel pretty stiff in the mornings. I don't have any other health issues right now, but I'm really curious about natural treatments to help manage this pain. Could you give me some advice on what I can do to start addressing this?
