Good morning all,I had Covid19 in Jan this year won't go into details! But I was one of the lucky ones the came out of hospital, but before covid I had pain in my R knee as have had a full knee replacement on the left successfully, but after covid the pain I have in both knees and hands are really severe, I couldn't even weight bare on my right leg.. phone the doctors he said it isn't the Covid that has flared it up and to go to physio which won't do any good...,I am on painkillers thats all ...any advice would be great ,thanks all stay safe x

I know someone else who has had this. I believe it is getting better with time. Covid is known to attack your joints.

Well done for surviving it and good luck with the long recovery.

They're learning new things all the time with the covid so for your doctor to dismiss it is just wrong. At least you got to see a physio.
