What are the causes of joint and muscle pain?

Hello Chanchal Ji,

We're sorry to hear you've been experiencing joint and muscle pain for the past 3–4 months. When such pain continues for weeks or months, it's important to identify the root cause so you can get proper relief.

Possible Causes of Long-Term Joint and Muscle Pain

• Vitamin D or B12 deficiency – very common and causes body aches and fatigue

• Arthritis – especially osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis

• Post-viral fatigue, like after COVID or other infections

• Hypothyroidism can cause stiffness, fatigue, and swelling

• Fibromyalgia or age-related wear and tear

What You Should Do To Relieve Joint and Muscle Pain?

1. Get some basic tests done – like Vitamin D, B12, thyroid, ESR, and CRP

2. Consult an orthopaedic or rheumatologist

3. Use warm compresses, do gentle stretches, and avoid long sitting

4. Maintain a balanced diet rich in calcium and protein

Wishing you strength, comfort, and a smooth recovery ahead!
