I've been having these symptoms for about 7 months now, like this weird internal fever where I feel hot inside, but it doesn't show up on a thermometer. I also get frequent headaches and this annoying pain in my joints, especially in my hands and legs. It's gotten to the point where I'm just not motivated to do anything. What do you think might be going on with me?

I'm experiencing something a bit oddmy feet swell up every evening but then go back to normal by the morning, and there's no pain with it. I usually go for walks both in the morning and evening. A while back, my right knee was swollen and painful, and I massaged it with sarson oil, which helped the knee, but now my feet are having this issue. I did the RA factor test, and it came back negative. My cholesterol is at 215.11 mgdl, but otherwise, my reports were normal. I'm just wondering what could be causing this swelling in my feetany insights?

Consider consulting a md physician to rule out underlying conditions, and in the meantime, try elevating your legs above the level of your heart while sitting, reducing salt intake, staying hydrated, and wearing compression socks to alleviate evening foot swelling, which may be related to your evening walks, improved knee condition, or elevated cholesterol.

My mom has been dealing with arthritis for 10 years her left leg posture has changed, and now her right leg hurts too. It got worse when her finger joints started acting up. Homeopathy didn't help, and allopathic painkillers caused digestion issues and loss of appetite. An orthopedic surgeon suggested knee surgery, but Ayurveda fixed her fingers, though her knees stay swollen and painful. I'm not sure if nonsurgical options even work for this kind of arthritis. With Covid around, hospital visits are tough, especially since we're far from cities. I'm looking into video consultations but don't know which specialist would be best could exercise, diet, meds, or injections help, or is surgery the only option?

ortho opinion is advised to the patient at apollo hospital.
