Osteoarthritis In Right Knee, Body Ache, Synovotis In Thumb. History Of Cervical Disc Replacement, Cortisone Injection Taken. Advise?
I am 46 years old and have had a cervical disc replacement c5/c6 and also have osteoarthritis in my right knee which will be treated with a partial knee replacement in the next year or so. I have aches and pains all over and recently had synovotis in my thumb treated with a cortisone injection. What could be the trouble?
