Question : I am experiencing sudden onset of intense muscle pain and feeling of stiffness - started Tuesday a.m. with pain in my wrist, for no apparent reason. Pain subsided overnight and Wed a.m. everything seemed fine. Late afternoon I started feeling achy and stiff, and by 7 pm I couldn't move my neck. Now I am feeling pain in my ribs/lungs when I try to take a breath. The neck pain is extreme, and now BOTH wrists are painful.

Brief Answer:
I think it can be myalgia

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have studied your case and I think it can be myalgia. It is pain due to fatigue, vitamin deficiency.

Before I advise you any thing I want to know little detail about your illness.
1. Are you having any fever ?
2. Are you having any joint pain or stiffness?
3. Are you taking any medicines or having any other disease?

Please send me answers of these questions. I will try my best to help you.

Thanks
