Joint Pain
Masakit kasukasuan
Joint pain is discomfort, aches, or soreness in any of the body's joints. It is especially common in the knees, shoulders, and hands. Causes range from normal wear and tear, minor injuries, and overuse to conditions such as arthritis and gout.
Low urgency
See a doctor if joint pain lasts more than a few weeks, involves significant swelling, redness, or warmth, or limits your ability to move the joint. Sudden, intense joint pain — especially with fever — should be evaluated promptly. When in doubt, consult a physician.
