Specializes in Internal Medicine

It can be an issue: and it's a pretty common area for those symptoms due to other issues such as arthritis, irritation of ligments/tendons and other minor strains. X-rays would show fractures but would not show the tendons and ligaments. Without an actual examination, I cannot give specific medical advice on your particular health,
