I’ve been suffering from swollen joints for years periodically. Now I’m constantly suffering from extremely painful and very swollen wrists. Sometimes in both or one or the other. I’ve read about Bromelin and just need to know about results. I’m female and in my 30’s. I’v been to the doctors and had blood tests, which came back normal I don’t want to take chemical enhanced drugs.

My young son is on Enbrel for arthritis. His uncle had psoriatic arthritis also and had been on Enbrel for 3 years, then had cancer 3 months ago. He died last week from it. His doctors thought Enbrel caused the cancer. We’re looking for doctors to give alternative treatment without Enbrel.

I have a pain in my shoulder, finger joints. I have visited doctors but they couldn’t give/tell the final cure for that

My mom has been sick for over the last three days of a rash all over her body, aching joints(shoulder, knees, legs, wrists,etc), and fever. We took her to ER and they did Catscan and tested her for meningitis and all tests came back negative. My mom stated that she went over to her rental property to clean it out of which the renter had a dog she stated they she didn’t notice the rash until a day later. Her legs and knees aches so bad that it is hard for her to walk and the tip of her fingers were somewhat blue??? The doctors have no idea what’s going on so they want to recommend her to a vascular doctor. If anyone are familiar with these symptoms please help!

I have had pain in my knees and ankles since I was 15. I am 31 now and last night woke up with severe pain in my left knee, both ankles and throughout my feet as well as pain in my neck, hands and left elbow. The pain was so severe that just standing made me nauseated. Moving my feet in any way hurt as if I had broken my ankles.
Yes I have had an MRI done, blood test, you name it. The doctors say they can’t find anything wrong with me.

My mother is about 70 years old she has got severe joint pains and vain pains both together. Doctor says that the pain subsides temporarily.She has been taken to several doctors but every body gives tem pain killers apart from regular calcium and other vitamin tablets. I am very much worried. She cannot move out for any purpose. We leave her at house when ever we go to out for any purpose.She do not want to make much movements. She is fat a little bit overweight. As per the X ray reports her joint bones have become rough due to friction. Can any body guide me about any effective treatment.

My mom has joint pain, but she is also on COUMADIN (anticoagulant). The problem is that every time she finds medication that helps the pain subside, the doctors tell her to stop using it? They keep telling her to stick to Tylenol, but it does nothing for the joint pain.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In pain

From running so much I have the worst shin splints, and pretty bad pain in my left knee, and so-so pain in my right knee. Some days my legs just throb all day, but some days they only hurt when I use them. The other day, they were killing. My mom said maybe we should go to the doctor to get it checked out.

What would the doctors do? X-rays? Refer me to physical therapy?

This summer my mom started feeling pain in her right elbow. Later her whole arm would hurt so the doctor said it was probably Tendinitis so she gave her a few exercises to do. Now her joints in her wrist, knees, ankles and toes sometimes hurt. Doctors still don’t know what it could be. Any ideas??

Arthritis and such runs in the family, my grandmother doesn’t even have her real hips anymore. The pains have been getting worse and it’s definitely not from a lack of movement. Does anyone know of joint meds or even doctors? Homeopathic medicine, just anything. I’m in Northern NJ.

I have severe pain in my lower back which travels into my legs .

I do have arthritis but not sure if it is that severe. I feel like I have it but seems these days doctors don’t believe people anymore. And also what about fibromilagia? I am sure I have it but how can I convince my doctor?
I am 37 years old.

what is the best cure or treatment for knee pain, apart from surgery? i heard of Supartz- a knee joint liquid to inject, but don’t know if it is effective, good, without side effects. can it be used on a diabetic patient? are there any other ways? this is for a diabetic with chronic knee pain – she cannot walk up steep paths, cannot climb stairs, and has severe pain. this is India, and doctors so far didn’t do much.please help! thank you
