I am only 19 but i feel like im over 50, I have constant joint pain and I am wondering if I can take medicine meant for older people to help return joint fluid and strength...

Which joints are felt painful?
Do you have chronic pain and stiffness in the lower part of the spine?
Was the onset of pain and stiffness gradual and progressively getting worse over months?
Do you feel the same symptoms in the area of other joints like hips, knees, and ankles?

Well when it comes to my spine it feels more like muscle stiffness, that sort of sore muscle pain, upper and lower back, but when it comes to my joints it is all over, my knees, hips, elbows, shoulders, neck and the joints in my upper back, and ankles...I don't know how to make it better..

you need to see dr, they can rule out where its coming from and what causing it. I have arthritis on my back, so i suffered from stiffness every morning, can't sit for too long or stand. i have good days and bad and i take a lot of supplements and pains meds. I eat organic food and stay away from red meat. Basically just eating healthy and staying active is the key to keep our body strong. good luck.

When are these symptoms mostly prominent?
Do they interfere with your daily activities?
