Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Persistent Pain In Joints Of Arms And Legs?
My legs and arms hurt all night and also during the day. This includes all of my joints. Some symptoms are like restless leg symptoms but would that included all of the joints. What do you think may cause this. It keeps me up at night and bother me while trying to sit and relax
Any history of fever if present can indicate viral arthritis which could be the reason for the persistent and generalised joint pain. Other causes to be ruled out are rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis (if any scaly rashes are present) and gout. I would suggest you to take complete blood count including ESR, RA factor, serum uric acid, and creatinine.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Saranya Ramadoss, General & Family Physician
