Hello dear
Your pains are most probably due to weak cartilage and weak muscles on account of lack of exercises and vitamin deficiencies.
However you saying that arthritis runs in your family gives me more to think about.
I would really want to know what kind of arthritis they have and at what age did they develop it.
Additionally if you have had any blood tests recently, i would want to have a look at them too.
Regards
Dr Vipin Gupta
