Joint pain?
Question:
Answers:
Walking will help your knees and knitting will help your fingers. The trick is to keep the joints warm and with blood flowing through them--regardless of the reason for the joint pain.
You should see your doctor to get a diagnosis. Try to avoid the pill regimens, because you start on ibuprophen and then that doesn't work anymore and you have to go to naproxen, then when that loses effectiveness they want to put you on Celebrex, etc. etc.
I've taken aspirin on occasion if the pain returns for whatever reason, but managing it with exercise and wam moist heat seems to work better than painkillers.

Probably arthritis or rheumatism, maybe osteo-arthritis, you should get it checked out anyway for your own piece of mind, a sign of wear and tear i'm afraid.
why are you asking on here? you should be asking the doctor.
You could have the beginning stages of arthritis. I noticed my fingers were getting little nodules at the joints and were sore. This started about 2 years ago. I am 58. I went to a rheumatologist and I have osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. My hands look terrible now and are so sore it is hard to move my fingers. I am on Piroxicam and it helps. Go see your doctor now before your symptoms get worse.
time for yr half-yearly check up
As said above, it's probably arthritis. I'm 43 as well, and used to play guitar in a band. I have bad arthritis in my fingers which is eased by keeping playing. So keep exercising them and avoid getting them cold and damp.
i have the same problem but mine is work related.iaw the Doc and was put on IBUPROFEN problem solved
Thats sounds like osteoarthritis, im 36 and have it in my knees, and neck. Try glucosamine, it helps the joints, try and exercise but only what you can do - swimming is good. Be wary of some of the painkillers like ibuprofen and diclofenac as the can upset your stomach. Get your doctor to get you to physiotherapy they have some great treatments now. they do work
go to your doctor.
It comes with age, try some advil.
This sounds like you may be undergoing the early stages of arthritic pain
Arthritis is a painful condition of the joints. The most common type is rheumatoid arthritis. Pain in the joints almost always begins in the hands, particularly in the knuckles and can occur in both hands at the same time.
Unfortunately there is no universal treatment for arthritis. However, your G.P can put you on drug treatment to reduce the pain, as well as physiotherapy, and joint replacements can greatly improve your quality of life if you have arthritis of the knee for example.
Consult your G.P immmediately though, as early diagnosis can be greatly beneficial.
