What Causes Pain And Stiffness In The Knee Joint?
Question: Dear Doctor, I have gone through quite a lot of stress in the last couple of months. In the last three weeks I have woken feeling very stiff and achy in the joints, particularly the right knee (which feels hot but it's not swollen or red), first joint of index finger on right hand and right hip (this has come and gone over the last six months). I also have an annoying feeling in the lungs as if I want to cough but I don't actually cough - they feel sort of inflamed as well. I get breathless easily with exercise and I feel generally fatigued and demotivated. People say I look pale and tired.
