Hi, I delivered my baby under c section - post:6 weeks now... My problem is I m suffering from a joint pin and muscles pain every time I woke up, I couldn t carry or take care of my baby anymore... can t walk properly, it took me 2mins to stand up, or more... Hard for me to take a stairs... I did lmy lab test, for I suspected it as RA/measles/or any disease but as result it s negative... I read some articles regarding on my condition, it s says: possible post partum joint pain/muscles pain.. My question is, is there any cure or what will i do?

hi
thanks for writting to HCM
may i know -any family history of rhematoid arthritis.
-do you have morning stiffness and what is the duration
-number of joints involved with swelling
so,based on above answer's the diagnosis of Rheumatoid arthritis is made and not on the RA factor alone.
as far as treatment is concerned we can start drugs if it is Rheumatoid arthritis likeHCQS(DMARD's) and paracetamol for pain control under medical guidance.
take diet rich in calcium,vitamin D and protein and breast feed(only) your child till 6 month,not even water.it's healthy for you and your baby.
take care and enjoy motherhood
