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?

View allI'm experiencing sores in my mouth and pain in my lower limbs. Last year, I had sores in my mouth which were followed by sores on my genital area and similar pain in my lower limbs. Could this be Behet's disease, or might it be something else? I'm really concerned and would appreciate your guidance.
It is possible that you are experiencing symptoms of Behcet's disease, a rare autoimmune condition that can cause mouth sores, genital sores, and inflammation in the blood vessels. However, it is important to consult with a doctor for a proper diagnosis. In the meantime, you can manage the symptoms with medications like colchicine for mouth sores and pain relief for lower limb pain.

I've been dealing with pain on the entire left side of my body from head to toe for the past 3 years. It starts at my neck, goes through my shoulder, arm, hand joints, lower back, hip, leg, and foot. The worst pain hits my shoulder joint at the back and lower back, but its only on my left side. An orthopaedic suggested I try vitamin D and B12 supplements, which I did, but they didnt help. Some days, the pain is so bad I cant even do any work, and other days its just a bit less. Im really concerned because I havent met anyone with the same issue. Could you tell me what kind of doctor I should see and what this might be? I'm really worried about whats going on.
It sounds like you may be experiencing neuropathic pain or nerve pain. This type of pain can be caused by various conditions affecting the nerves in your body. Since you have already seen an orthopedic doctor and tried Vitamin D and B12 supplements without much relief, I would recommend consulting a Neurologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm 52 and my ASO titer is 459. Could this affect my heart or kidneys? What precautions should I take?
An elevated ASO (anti-streptolysin O) titer can indicate a recent streptococcal infection. This infection can potentially lead to complications such as rheumatic fever, which can affect the heart and kidneys. To prevent complications, it is important to treat the underlying streptococcal infection with antibiotics. In this case, you can take a course of antibiotics such as Penicillin V at a dosage of 500mg four times a day for 10 days. Additionally, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for monitoring and further management. It is also advisable to rest, stay hydrated, and maintain a healthy lifestyle to support your recovery
