Hi
You should rule out a systemic arthritis.Should have a routine blood check and find out whether your ESR in normal range.Also should check for serum cholestrol which if elevated will have joint pain.uric acid and Rheumatoid factor also.Now you can have a short course of aceclofenac 100mg once daily for 5 days.Better get your doctor consultation for this.hope this may help you.
thanks
