Brief Answer:
could be due to inflammatory polyarthritis

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
There is still a possibility that it may be arthritis.

I suggest to get tested for anti-CCP, CRP and also get a chest x-ray, to rule out other types of arthritis. Also, try taking an anti-inflammatory like diclofenac to see if you respond to it.

Let me know if I can assist you further.
