Question 1

I'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?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 2

I've been having this sharp pain on the upper left side of my chest, and it tends to get worse when I move around, like when I stand up or go for a walk. Sometimes, I even feel it between my chest. Could this be costochondritis, and if it is, what kind of medicine would help? I'm just worried if everything's alright.

Question 3

My mom has been dealing with arthritis for 10 years her left leg posture has changed, and now her right leg hurts too. It got worse when her finger joints started acting up. Homeopathy didn't help, and allopathic painkillers caused digestion issues and loss of appetite. An orthopedic surgeon suggested knee surgery, but Ayurveda fixed her fingers, though her knees stay swollen and painful. I'm not sure if nonsurgical options even work for this kind of arthritis. With Covid around, hospital visits are tough, especially since we're far from cities. I'm looking into video consultations but don't know which specialist would be best could exercise, diet, meds, or injections help, or is surgery the only option?

I've been taking allopurinol 100 mg for the last 5 years to manage my gout. I'm wondering if it's safe to keep using it long-term because whenever I stop, I experience pain in my big toes. Is this something I should be concerned about?
