My grandmother has knee pain with some swelling and was told her synovial membrane is thinning. She's struggling to walk and can't get knee replacement surgery because she's diabetic. She's at a normal weight could you suggest a safe pain reliever with anti-inflammatory effects that works with olmesartan medoxomil?

View allI've been dealing with this pain in my left shoulder for the last few days. It's really uncomfortable and even spreads to my upper chest when I breathe. On top of that, I'm noticing pain in my joints, mostly in my wrists and fingers. It's pretty worrisome, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can you give me some advice on what this might be?
