Asking for Self, Female, 34 years old, Rawalpindi
AssalaamuAlaikum. Mid Ramadhan I started to feel pain or discomfort on my hands, it's like pain on my hand joints and i feel like stiffness too. I thought that maybe during ramadhan, i did somehow overwork my hands with all the chores in the kitchen. Is this something to worry about? Can this be cured? Sometimes my wrists joints hurt too. What tests should I do? JazakAllah khair.
get cbc, esr, ra factor aniccp and book an appointment
Walaikum Asalam
please get your Vit D, Calcium and RA Factor checked. it can be due to the deficiency of cal or vitamin D or can be arthritis too.
No need to worry . check calciam level and book an appointment 1 can recover it in 1 week. Thank u
Get your blood CP ESR RA factor and Anti CCP antibodies and urine RE and visit a rheumatologist

Thank u doctor for replying.
I forgot to mention that 2 years ago, out of curiosity I had my vitamin D level checked. I didn't feel any signs or symptoms, no joint pain ot whatsoever that time. Then the result was 6 ng/ml, which way way low. Then a doctor advised me to take vit D3 50,000iu once a week for like 2 months. I did that for like a month, then i checked again my vit. D level, it went up to 26 ng/ml. Then after that have not checked again. Im thinking if my joint pain now is maybe because my vitamin D level is low?
