i went on a fishing trip for 3 weeks, it was fine, nothing strenuous, but now that i got home, i have very sore ancles and soles of my feet (at the heel, the pain comes from underneath) very sore wrists and elbows, sore chest muscles, sore throat, and red spots all over my palms. now i have not done anything that would normally cause sore joints, this has occured 4 days after i got home, i have not done much since, just unpack and tidy the house, i am 18 also.

what might be causing this?

For the past 2 years, with it getting worse the last 6 months, I have pretty bad pain when walking, with stiffness and swelling in my knees, hips and ankles. My fingers are also stiff and achy and I also have pain in my elbows. Walking, bending is getting worse. And climbing and coming down stairs is very difficult. Although some days seem worse than others. Also, my toes seem to be deforming and I have pain in them as well. What could be wrong with me?

We are going through a big audit at work and ever since then I wake up with the joints in my fingers, knees, ankles, toes, elbows, and neck being very stiff and painful, like arthritis. I am 38-years-old and have had osteoarthritis in my fingers since my early 20s (genetic). Could this be arthritis brought up by on-the-job stress? (The only over-the-counter painkiller that works is ibuprofen, and ibuprofen makes me go to sleep, even if I take only 200 mg)

Three weeks ago my lower back felt sore and bruised and my ankles were sore and one swelled up a little bit. The following week I felt stiff and sore but nothing too bad and no swelling. This week it hurts to walk because my ankles and feet are so sore, along with my knees ankles, elbows, hands and fingers. One knuckle is red, swollen, and sore on my right hand, and on my left foot one toe is swollen and hurts terribly to walk. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!
oh and I do not work out or play sports of any kind, I have had no serious physical injuries ever.

Did some serious drinking last night…woke up with a tiny headache that went away fast, but now all of my joints are sore.

Not like a painful thing and nothing that is preventing any movement, but it’s annoying…is this from the drinking? I don’t think I’ve ever had sore joints after drinking before, but I can’t think of any other reason. I didn’t do excessive exercise or anything yesterday, and the soreness is about equal in my knees/elbows/hips/shoulders so I highly doubt it’s from sleeping in a weird position or anything.

If it is from drinking, how does it happen…just out of curiosity?

My hands are always freezing, people wont hold my hands because their so cold. And i get really sharp, shooting pains in my hands and in my joints, my joints also "crack" or "pop" alot, whenever i get up i’ll pop in my knees, or elbows, or my hands. Which is all fine and dandy except that I’m 14.

I have a sore neck, shoulder, and elbow, all on the left side.
I work out often, but now I can hardly do a pushup or pullup. My elbow pops, and my shoulder hurts not the muscle but deeper, and my neck is always hurting on the left. Is it the way I sleep efecting this, or an old possible neck injury. My chest also pops and has that cracked chest feel, yeah I’m all messed up. I was thinking about getting a total gym and maybe quitting the free weights for a while, or should I just see a chiropractor and give him all my money?
25yo male
Thanks, could a hurt neck cause other problems on my left side? And does anyone know about cracking chest syndrome?
thanks alot Tex

Ever since I came back from my trip to Oklahoma a few weeks ago I have been finding unexplained bruises on my body in the most random places. I had a couple just below the knuckle of my thumb, on my lower palm area, the side of my knee, on my leg and other random places. Some of them are explained, some of them are weird.

Some just look brownish and the aren’t tender an I think it’s really weird and I read in a book somewhere that bruising could be sign of some disease i think it was leukemia but i’m not sure. I didn’t think much of it because I did rigorous activity in OK. I have been working a lot lately and I have to do a lot.

I’ve also had some pretty sore joints around my ankles and wrists sometimes my elbows. My ankles would feel weird like they need to be popped or stretched or something but it doesnt work it just feels sore and like its being lightly pulled out of joint. My wrist have been doing it lately too.

A couple weeks ago when they were sore i was at the theater and when i was using the rail to pull me up as i took two steps at i time and that didnt help it at all it felt like someone was tugging on it really hard. like pulling it out of joint. i’m only 18 i dont know whats going on and im concerned about my sore joints. it might be nothing, might be that im not as active as i used to be but its been coming and going for awile now.

I’ve also been really tired lately even when i get 9 or 10 hours. Normally I cant sleep past 10 but today i slept till 1. it could be that i’ve been working a lot or my sleeping schedule is off and i’m not going to bed till 3 or 4 now. even at that i wake up at 10.

Could there be something seriously wrong?
