Level 100: Weird joint pain

Posted by antescanada @antescanada, Oct 20, 2020

Hi guys. I am clueless and my doctors dont have enough knowledge. I have weird issue with joints in my body. I am 38 old male normal bmi, athletic, living mostly healty and smoker ....

The problem I have goes back to last 7-8 years. I will get very strong joint pain in random part of body. It could be wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip, finger, foot. It will happen in one spot and it feels very painful. No redness, no inflamation nothing that would point that something is happening there. Pain will start slowly and after taking some painkillers it would disappear after 2-3 days completely like nothing happened. And then after couple of weeks sometimes month it would come back to completely different join and same thing again.... doctor did try to take my blood sample during that but nothing showed on result. Recently moved to Canada and theese doctors are even worse , prescribe you painkillers and thats it. They really dont care here about patients, its like money rush... well anyone have something similar or suggestions I would appreciate it very much.

I have the exact same issues and it’s funny that you describe it the same way I do… Weird random pain. Mine would be so painful. It would be disabling in certain joints. My recent issue is a red, swollen foot. The doctor was vaccinating on gout or cellulitis. Decided on cellulitis so I’m on an antibiotic. Don’t know if it’s an escalation of the weird random pain or something else. I’m in my Early 70s and I know stuff can happen But I don’t wanna just sit back and accept it, I want answers. I want to do my best to be as healthy as I can. I know I love potato chips. They’re my weakness whether that has something to do with it, I’m not sure. Otherwise . My diet is very clean. Just thought I’d throw in my two cents. I thought it was interesting that we use the same words.
