I have a dull aching feeling in my right side, arm, leg, shoulder andneck. I m also starting to get the same feeling in my left arm. It s very painful in the mornings and I m very stiff. Also very stiff when I ve been sitting down for a long period of time. At times I get a tinglling feelings in my right hand (fingers) and my arms sometimes feels dead like I ve been laying on it. It also feels quite tight. I would also say at times I get a shooting pain feeling. Can you help?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Your symptoms seem to be related to rheumatoid arthritis.
I suggest to do a rheumatoid factor level and ERS level.
Meanwhile,I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the symptoms.
I also suggest using cold compresses for local application.
If the symptoms continue, I suggest to consult a rheumatologist.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
