What Causes Severe Pain In The Body?
I am 46 years old. About 9 months ago I started having major hip pain. Went to chiropractor but it didn t really help. Now my body just aches pretty much all over. My elbows ache,fingers hurt, knees hurt and my hip is much worse some days. How do I go about finding out whats wrong? Can I change diet? Tired of hurting Thank you Kim

Hello,
There are several causes of widespread pains in the body. A very common and possible one is fibromyalgia. Arthritis is a possible cause especially if you get swelling and redness or hot sensation on the joints.
You will need a good and thorough examination and possibly some tests to make sure of the possible cause of your symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
