Just got a call from my doctor and they are referring me to an orthopedic. I hope they are able to find something. They also said they got my blood work back and said I have no signs of arthritis.

Maybe a run by a chiropractor would help. Does stretching it do any good? Could be something a little pinched.

Try a chiropracter who uses the "activator method" if possible. I had knee pain and was scheduled for surgery but had a chiropractic adjustment scheduled before. He said that my back was out and he wasn't surprised that I had knee problems. After the adjustment I had no more knee problems. I canceled the knee surgery and after several months I am still doing good as long as I see the chiropracter about once a month.

See a Sports medicine doctor in your area. You may have a problem with your ACL which would not show on an X-ray. Have an MRI, this will show more. You may also be arthritic, but someone who specializes with these types of injuries will be able to tell you more.

Pain in the joints could be due to various reasons. Some of the most common reasons are injuries,bursitis,muscle pains,arthritis,overexertion or other diseases.Sometimes,small or large joints on both sides of the body may be affected. Most of the joint pains can be cured but for some types like joint pain, (pain due to osteoarthritis),treatment will only help in reducing the pain.

Well......your orthopedic doctor might recommend you to have an MRI. In my situation....the MRI revealed alot....the X-ray was quite unclear. Talk to this doctor you are being referring to about your options.

Request an MRI it will show more than an x-ray. Good luck.
