Hi sir, you have described your problems very nicely. It gives us some hint as to whether it is ortho issues or medicine issues. Need to know a few more things before I can suggest appropriate test.
Do you have any trauma?
Can you think of what was the triggering factor?
Has it improved or worsened or remains the same?
Any other associated factors?
Also, some follow up questions.
So I would suggest you to either consult online or visit a physician ad you have seen ortho already.
