Hello there... you should definately go in for blood test first to find out heamoglobin
Calcium,vit d3,B12,HLA b27(RA factor)....also at this age a routine screening of Thyroid should be done along with xrays for knee & wrist
Pain killers & conventional physiotherapy would give symptomatic & temporary relief....the actual reason for joint pains should be found out first.
Regards & take care.
