Not related: The joint pain is not related to smoking cessation, but the anxiety may be. Do not give in to the temptation to resume smoking. See your Dr to discuss anxiety issues, and diagnostics for the joint pain

Anxiety control: Congratulations on quitting smoking! It's quite possible that smoking helped you cope with stress. Now is a great time to learn other ways of calming yourself physically and mentally.
