Joint pain: If your pains don't resolve, consult a rheumatologist. If you have recently had a tic bite, go to an infectious disease doctor. Antibiotics like levoquin can also give you joint pain.

Doctor: Sudden onset of pain in multiple joints raise the flag an inflammatory, metabolic or autoimmune conditions. You need a doctor's evaluation to rule out any of these possibilities.
