What could this pain above my kneecap be?

Why do my joints hurt? I'm 35 and way too young for pain! lol I have dislocated each kneecap. What can I do?

  • I just started taking glucosomine for my joints, but seriously almost all of my joints hurt. The worst ones are my jaw, elbows, knees, ankles and fingers. I will wake up in the middle of the night with extreme elbow pain. I had a baby 7 months ago, but had milder joint pain before- since the baby, the pain is more intense. I don't excersise like I should, and am still overweight from having the baby. Is there something else I can do or eat? Overall, I'm a healthy person. There is no swelling or heat on the joints themselves.

  • Answer:

    Sounds like the baby had some effect on you. I'm not saying 35 is old, it was my favorite age, but having a baby takes an awful lot out of you (I'll bet you noticed that without me saying it). Then you're not sleeping right and definitely not excercising like you should, and the extra weight. All that can add up to some unusual problems for you. If it's severe you ought to see a doctor who will take a good look at it and maybe try to rule out arthritis. Not a doctor that likes to prescribe pain pills for everything, that'll cause more problems.

Losing weight would be a good start at lessening joint pain. I would suggest going to your doctor and asking him to set up some tests and see what's going on. You could have early onset of osteoarthritis, which means the protective fluids between the joints have disappeared and the bones are rubbing together. Since you injured your knees, this also can indicate you have arthritis setting into your joints. Ibuprophen is a good pain reliever, as it reduces swelling & inflammation. Only take as recommended by a doctor. Putting a heating pad on the painful joint for about 15-20 minutes sometimes helps relieve the pain, as will a hot pack, which is something like blue ice and can be used hot or cold. Heat always feels better. Again, see your doctor. And get back to a reasonable weight. It will make you feel better all over. <*)))><
