Chronic Pain In Knees,neck, Shoulder And Swelling In Hands, Feel Unbalanced. Suffered An Accident Years Ago.
I have chronic pain...I was in a bad accident yrs ago. the last two years I have noticed a change in my gate, I get dizzy, sometimes I feel like I will fall on my face. I can't pick u things without feeling like my hands are going to break...they crack and pop, (between my knuckles are swollen), my right knee, my feet, feel like they are going to break when I go to put weight on them. While sitting My neck hurts so bad my head feels like it is going to fall off of my shoulders and hurts like crazy(my neck and shoulders). Like right now and I haven't been typing for twenty minutes.

Hello,
I have studied your case with diligence.
As per your history there is possibility of polyarthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis may involve small joints and early morning stiffness in joints, does she have such complain?
Ankylosing spondylitis typically involve spine and hips with other large joint also. There is reduced chest function in this disease. Stiffness in spine is increased does she have such stiffness in spine?
Harmone imbalance like hypothyroidism also leads to similar complain.so check your thyroid profile.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care
