Evaluation: Hi, first step is to get a full evaluation. Your doctor may then refer you to physical therapy or prescribe a healthy routine/ diet/ lifestyle modification to assist with these problems. You may need to see a rheumatologist or other specialist depending on what your primary finds. Great job, taking the first step to better health! best of luck!
