Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe shoulder pain and knee pain . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like fibromyalgia , gout , disc dislocation or arthritis. I would suggest you to apply warm compresses on shoulder and knee , drink plenty of water , eat fresh fruits and green vegetables and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain. If condition doesn't get well then consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination. Doctor may order certain test like blood test , urine test and CT scan of spine . Doctor may prescribe allopurinol , methotrexate or anti inflammatory along with physical therapy . Hope your concern has been resolved.
