What Causes Swelling In The Elbow And Knees With Excessive Sweating?

I have swelling in the elbow areas and now I am swelling in the knees and have sore legs which are keeping me awake at night. I also sweat excessively and put that down to hormonal as I am 57 yrs old. Do you think there is anything I should be checked for.

Dear Sir,

You need to get your self evaluated for tuberculosis and rule out malignancies like lymphomas.
