Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Repeated joint pains can be due to multiple causes at this age the commonest being polyarthralgia.
Other causes can be rheumatoid arthritis, gout, inflammatory diseases like SLE, bursitis, fibromyalgia, etc. The raised sedimentation rate suggests an inflammation. I'd suggest consulting a Rheumatologist for proper treatment.
