Question : I usually get a sudden shock in my right joints when I get up from my chair. This usually happens when I have played badminton or a run in the morning.

Brief Answer:
Can be low levels of vitamin B12.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
A sudden shock like feeling in the joints can be related to a mild nerve root compression or low levels of vitamin B 12 or an electrolyte disturbance. You can get your blood levels checked and start with suitable supplements. You can also increase your intake of electrolyte rich fluids to help with this problem.
I hope this answers your query.
