You experience joint pain
People who perform hard and high intensity workouts may experience joint pain often, but if you don’t exercise regularly and have stiff or swollen joints, you should talk to your doctor as soon as possible. Â
According to Adam Kreitenberg, MD, board-certified rheumatologist for health platform 1MD. ” one thing you should never ignore is joint swelling and joint stiffness. This may occur anywhere throughout the body, whether the hands and feet or knees.”
Swollen or stiff joints can be a sign that you suffer from arthritis or osteoarthritis. “These symptoms could be a sign of declining health status. Oftentimes, it could be the start of benign degenerative arthritis or osteoarthritis but may underlie something more serious or detrimental. It may be the early signs of autoimmune arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis, immune system imbalance, hormonal imbalance, improper nutrition, or physical ‘deconditioning’,” he added.
