I am havinh intense pain in my ankles for past 6 months. Mostly it is extreme in the morning when I get up and with some stretching and due course of the day goes a bit down. I had chikangunya like symptoms last year in september which got corrected in 1 week. However. When winters started my ankles started to hurt november onwards. I have been taking etoshine 90mg painkiller on and off for some relief and have taken HCQS 200 tablet for a month but it was of not great help. I am doing some yoga as well which is not helping either. Blood work shows uric acid and anti ccp serum to be normal. CRP (c reactive protein) serum was of the chart at 22 and ESR at 53. Please guide here. Thanks.
