Welcome to HCM.
You should go for complete investigations like cbc,rbs,thyroid,calcium,d3.
It is most likely musculo scalatal pain due to over weight.
Don't do all exercise at a time and gradually increase the grade of exercise.
Exercise under guidance of instructor is advisable.
You can take simple oral nsaid during episode of severe pain,local application of nsaid gel will be helpful.
You can change your exercise from jogging to swimming.
Also start b12,calcium,d3,minerals supplement under guidance of your physician.
