I'm dealing with this consistent pain running from the back of my left shoulder to my hand, and it's been like this for a month now. I started with severe pain and had to take an injection from an orthopedic doctor. I also went through physiotherapy with heat and IFT for a week. The physiotherapist mentioned I have a muscle spasm, but my orthopedic doctor thinks it might be Fibromygenia. I'm doing exercises every day, but the pain in my left hand gets worse as the day goes on. What do you think is going on? Any advice would be really helpful.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 38, and for the past two years, she's been dealing with knee joint pains. She's not too keen on going to the hospital, but the pain isn't too severe. Last year, the doctor told her that her knee joint's starting to rub after a scan. He also suggested she try to lose some weight. The pain gets worse when she walks a lot or climbs stairs frequently. I usually apply oil to her legs, and sometimes she wears a knee cap. The pain is more intense in one leg than the other. Can you suggest some ways to help reduce her pain and maybe offer some diet advice?
To alleviate your mom's knee joint pain, suggest she: loses weight (aiming for 55-60 kg) through a balanced diet and exercise like walking, swimming, or yoga; strengthens surrounding muscles through physical therapy or exercises like squats, lunges, and leg press; uses proper footwear, knee caps, and walking aids as needed; applies heat or cold therapy; and considers alternative therapies like acupuncture or massage. Dietary recommendations include: increasing omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish, nuts, and seeds), vitamin D (dairy, sunlight), and calcium (dairy, leafy greens) intake; avoiding processed foods, sugar, and saturated fats; and drinking plenty of water.
