Hello,
Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to arthritis or chronic inflammation.
For this reason, I would recommend checking inflammation tests (complete blood count, PCR, ESR, Rheumatoid factor levels, etc.).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
