Having shoulder and knee joint pain

Hi Everybody,

Long story short, I have intense shoulder and knee joint pain. I can feel sweeling in my knee joints. I have never consulted a doctor regarding it as i am just 24 years old, not over weight but yes not fit too. The thing is i do not have regular joint pains. I am also unaware when does it start and ends. I sleep and next day i awake to intense pain , it is so much that i can not bend my kness or lift my arms. I do not know it is arthiritis. Yes i feel like my bones nearby knee has become tender as if sone hard cushion. I am not able to get up form my bed as right now, my hip joints are too paining. Oh god!! i do not know how i slept. But yes,  it is not for the first time i am having it. It is on and off, not a particular period, but yes past 5 years it has been so. 

Kindly guide me,what i can do. I have taken diclofenac 50 mg as it has relieved me earlier. I think at this age arthiritis can not be to me. I am still young...Please help..

Hi Neha

you really should consult a doctor.Once you have a diagnosis you can do your own research into the best course of action.

Hi are you in the UK? Go & get a second opinion.If your GPS surgery.And do choose & book,then you might be able to have your op in the nearest Nuffield hospital, but still on the NHS.Good luck.Regards Amanda
