Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Now you are 54 years of age, there could be pre menopause,or menopause, osteoporosis, arthritis or anemia which are causing these problems.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment .
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms injections of vitaminB1,6,and 12 for 10 consecutive days and then periodically.protein supplements, calcium, multivitamins, and hematinics till the diagnosis is established.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato,egg, chicken, and sea foods till the pains are controlled.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
