General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Muscle and joint pain can be related to many medical conditions. Some of the causes can be rheumatoid arthritis or chronic fatigue syndrome. So, I suggest to do some examinations to exclude the possibility of rheumatoid arthritis such as rheumatoid factor level and ERS level. Meanwhile, I recommend to lower the stress in the daily routine and eat healthy. I recommend to use magnesium supplements which help in muscles relaxation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
