Hi Thanks for your query Based on your description she seems to have polyarthritis (multiple joint pain) needs investigation like- Serum RA factor, serum uric acid, ANA factor, complete blood count .Beside blood test clinical examination is must to make diagnosis like -morning stiffness present or not, number of joint involved, swollen and warm joint and so on. Meanwhile you can give her nutritional joint supplement like glucosamine (1500mg in divided doses), pain killer like indomethacin after having a word with your doctor. Take care and for any further query you may log in at http://bit.ly/drmchugh Regards
