Question : sever pain in both hands and arms

Answered by Dr. Dr. Naveen Kumar Sharma (1 hour later)

Brief Answer:
It can be due to myalgia or weak bones

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. Severe pain in both hands and arms is suggestive of poor bones. It can be due to lack of calcium and vitamin D3. Also there can be post viral arthralgia following fever. Before I advised you anything I would like to know little detail of the illness.
1.Since when you are having these symptoms?
2.Did you had any fever recently?
3.Do you have Thyroid or Diabetes?
Please send me answers of these questions. I will try my best to help you.
Thanks
