What Causes Burning, Tingling, Swelling And Pain In Extremities?

Hi, I am 57 years old, female. I often have burning, tingling, swelling, stiffness & general pain in my both my hands, fingers, feet, ankles & lower legs. A lot of the time it is in the A.M., but can flare up anytime. I have been tested for RA. My salt intake is very minimal. Please, if you could point me in a direction of something to look for.
