What Causes Severe Tendon Pain In Hips Spread To Other Joints?

I have severe tendon pain. It started in my hips but has spread to shoulders, knees, elbows, and neck. Doctors have done blood tests with nothing outside of normal parameters. Pain and stiffnes are worse in morning. It hurts just to get out of bed. Phisycal activity seems to loosen tendons but pain persists. What could it be?

Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are having most probably rheumatoid arthritis as it involved many joints and pain is more in the morning. You have mentioned that all blood tests are normal , whether rheumatoid factor test was done. If it is normal then it is likely seronegetive rheumatoid arthritis . Treatment of it assuming rheumatoid arthritis will be disease modifying agents such as methotrexate. Analgesic such as ibuprofen are given for pain relief. You can discuss with your Doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.
Wishing you a good health. Take care.
