Would like some advice

Ever since i was little i have always had horrible pains in my knees and my legs recently i have been experiencing much pain from my hip joints all the way to my ankles. Im only 20 years of age. my hips joints also pop a lot. I have gone to the doctors but if i say hip pains i get examined for everything else but that. I was wondering if this could be arthritis? Im more worried about my knees then my hips but also worried about them as well and i know its not unheard of for young people to have arthritis. I was also wondering if anyone knows of a good supplement for joints that i coud use to help with this. Most of the time all my joints feel like it is all bone on bone. If any one can help and give me advice i would appreciate it very much. Specially till i can find me a good specialist.

Hi there.  You should insist on having arthritis ruled out and also have them check for fibromyalgia.  Have you had any blood tests?  Which ones?  Get copies and post them here and we can help to steer you in the right direction.

In the mean time, try taking a fish oil capsule and increase the omega 3's in your diet.  Eat healthy and gentle exercise.
