Rheumatoid arthritis.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

As already discussed on phone,
The symptoms your wife is suffering ,seems to be due to the Rheumatoid arthritis. Needs an immediate consultation by orthopaedician or physician. Get the preferred investigations like ESR, C reactive protein, X ray of the affected joint as early as possible to rule out the exact cause.

Do update me after the Doctor's visit.

Take care.

Hello Doctor,
We consulted with a physician. As per him it is viral fever.
Asked us to wait for 2-3 days before making any conclusion or prescribing for any test.
We took Advanced crocin 500 mg and yesterday paracitamol 500 mg. Today there is no fever for the whole day. But joint and muscular pain at multiple points is still there.In fact today evening we found rashes also in her body. Got worried.
She developed mouth ulcer also.
In between she felt giddiness also.
Pl advice.

No specific treatment is available for this. Take plenty of fluids like fresh fruit juice. Give her rest for a week. You can take some vitamin supplements like TAB. A TO Z
