Tight Hamstrings, Mobility Restricted, Joint Pain, Taking Panadol, Done Blood Test
hi there. my problem is very tight hamstrings which restricts my mobility. Also on regular intervals of 2/3 weeks my whole body aches and is worse on my joints. I have starting taking panadol now and that has helped cause I sleep better.This condition is worse at night and in the morning. I also can not walk or stand for long.My blood tests were done 3 months ago and they came back normal except creative kinase was slighty raised.

Hi, this is dr.syed minhaj ahmed,
creatine kinase elevation indicates that there is strain of the muscle and is not al a specific investigation which can lead us to a diagnosis.
However, joint pains need to assessed clinically.What i would like to know is whether there is involvement of small joints of hand also ? with early morning stiffness ? in which case it may be a part of rheumatoid arthritis with secondary myalgia affecting hamstrings.
