Hello and thank you for your question.
It does sound like you need to see a doctor. You could have a form of arthritis causing your joints to swell.The swelling could cause the discoloration of the skin. It is important to find out the cause of this swelling since it could be serious and there may be a treatment available to you. Please try to see a doctor as soon as possible for exam and blood tests.
Regards,
Dr. Robinson
