What Causes Pain In The Body And Back?
I had taken all kinds of pain killers for my symptoms. I don t know what else to take to alleviate my pain. My body aches all over, 24 hours a day. Could be fybromialgia, plus I have back pain and arthritis in my knees. My question to you is: where to go or what to do to get right diagnosis and be pain free. Thank you,

Hello,
As you are having back pain and knee pain, you should be assessed for rheumatoid arthritis.
You should visit an orthopaedic surgeon or rheumatologist for your diagnosis and treatment. I hope you will get a diagnosis. Till the diagnosis is made, you can take any over the counter painkiller.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
