Inability to Move the Affected Area
When you carefully observe the symptoms highlighted above, all point to one thing, and that is the inability to move the affected area. Due to swelling, stiffness and muscle weakness, it will become nearly impossible to move the joint that is affected. The kind of pain you are likely to experience in your attempt will dissuade you completely. If you have tried all you can, made use of ice-packs, rested your joints for a certain number of days and there is still no improvement as to mobility, then you need your doctor to come in at this stage.
