I've been having this shifting back pain for a while now. Sometimes it's below my right shoulder, other times it's above my waist or even right on the waist. It's not unbearable but definitely bothersome. I've tried using Crocine Advance, Move ointment, and Fast Relief but they haven't really helped. I usually take Bcosule Z and Atenol50, and for the past month, I've been on Ostocalcium. Should I be worried or try something different? What could be causing this shifting pain?

It sounds like your back pain could be related to musculoskeletal issues, posture, or even early signs of bone health concerns like osteoporosis. The calcium you're taking is a good step, but a full evaluation by a doctor (likely a orthopedic specialist, or neurologist,physiotherapist) is recommended to get to the root of the problem and receive appropriate treatment. Make sure to continue with gentle stretching, focus on posture, and consider physical therapy if the pain continues. If the pain worsens or new symptoms develop, its important to consult a specialist for further evaluation.

I'm really concerned because my ESR is at 80mm after the first hour, as per the report, and for the last two months, I've been dealing with frequent fevers. I had viral fever, then got typhoid twice, and recently another fever hit me. My doctor suggested some tests, and most came back fine, except for an abdominal scan that showed my liver has increased in size and my ESR is high. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm dealing with this recurring issue where my uric acid levels get high. I've been diagnosed with gout arthritis in the past, and I've been taking Febustat 40 daily whenever I notice any pain or swelling. I've tried taking it twice a day, which seems to help, but if I stop for a while, the pain comes back. It used to only affect my right knee, but now it's happening in my left knee too. What should I do about this? Is there a better way to manage it?
