For a long time I have had extreme pain in my muscles, starting from the joints. I have pain between two intervertebral discs in the shoulder area, in the pelvic area and in the knees. Just squeezing the muscles around these joints gives me excruciating pain and this pain is so intense even just lying in bed. The pain is constant 24/7 in my muscles. I can hardly endure the massage for long, although without it, I can hardly move without feeling pain. I had an mri, but the doctor said it was nothing to do with the nerves. The pain is distributed evenly over both legs, the pelvic area, the left arm and the back.
