Brief Answer:
Can be due to the electric shock.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The intermittent pain in the muscles and joints that you are having could be due to the electric shock that you had. It can cause a nerve damage causing such pains.
The other causes of such pains can be electrolyte imbalance, muscle spasm, myositis, Vitamin B 12 deficiency, thyroid hormone imbalance, etc.
In case the pains are persistent, it is best to get a few blood tests done under the guidance of your physician for proper diagnosis.
Till then start taking Vitamin B 12 supplements and see if the symptoms improve.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
