since about november i have been experiancing muscle tightness in most of my body. if i sit down for any length of time and get up my knees ,legs, and back really are stiff. once i walk a little ways the muscles loosen up somewhat and walking is bearable. if i stand in one place for very long the same thing happens.also at the same time this started my shoulder joints get a stinging pain in them when i lift my arms about halfway up.
Dear Patient, Welcome, and thanks for sharing your concern I went through your query, and I feel, your symptoms look like arthritis, so to move in that direction we need confirmation with help of investigations, and that will include blood as well as x-rays, for this you must see your doctor, and take medication and tests as advised, I must tell you that role of healthy diet, regular exercise and active lifestyle is more important that Chat Doctor. I hope my advice would have been useful, in decision-making regarding your treatment, still if you have any clarifications or doubts feel free to contact back.
