I've been dealing with severe knee pain for years and it's really affecting my daily life. My knee feels weak and sometimes the pain is unbearable. I've also noticed swelling around my ankle at times. Are there any effective remedies for knee pain that don't involve surgery? Can medications help or are there other treatments available? I'm planning to travel in November-December but worried about managing this pain. What options do I have?

View allI've been experiencing these body aches and mild fever every few weeks, like clockwork, about every 20 days. The aches are really intense, to the point where even my ears and fingers hurt, and I just feel feverish. It's weird because sometimes I think I have a fever, but when I check with a thermometer, it usually reads normal. Even so, I feel this internal feverishness and a general sense of weakness. What could be causing these recurring body pains and this mild feverish feeling? Is there something going on that I should be worried about?
It sounds like you might be experiencing recurrent episodes of a viral infection, inflammatory response, or an underlying autoimmune condition. Conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or viral infections can cause body aches and a low-grade fever, even without a measurable temperature increase. Its important to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying causes and get a proper diagnosis.
