You may benefit from physical therapy or a personal trainer to give you a program to follow to improve mobility and strength. I’m not sure if this applies to you but with my struggle with deep depression the last few years, my health has deteriorated because I haven’t exercised much at all. This isn’t good for joints/muscles or mental health. Were you able to still get exercise and do you exercise now?

You may want to see your doctor to do some bloodwork to make sure you are not deficient in vitamins/minerals and you may also benefit from seeing a nutritionist/dietitian to help you improve your health through healthy eating and supplements. You may need a diet that helps reduce inflammation and supports joint health. I put multi collagen protein powder in my protein drinks which helps joints and hair/nails. My knees don’t crack as much when I squat and my skin, hair and nails are stronger and not as dry. There are other supplements the nutritionist/dietitian can recommend to help improve your health.

I believe you have an opportunity through exercise and nutrition that you can definitely improve your health. You are young and have time to improve your future health.
