Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have read your query.

Symptoms you explaining that may be due to many reasons like increase uric acid, RA factor ( if swelling also occurs).

If I am your treating doctor I would like to advise you serum uric acid, ESR, CRP and serum RA factor.

So I advise you to have visit for orthopedic surgeon he will advise you these tests.

Till then have cap.indomethacin25mgs thrice a day by prescription of your treating doctor.

Apply hot packs for 30 mins in morning and evening.

Thanks,
