Why do I have pain in my legs and hands?
Question
I am a 38 years old man having a lot of body pain, especially in my hands, legs and back. If I sit on the floor for a short duration, my legs become inactive. It seems there is some problem in the nervous system. I am a patient of ulcerative colitis too and as per the gastroenterologist it is in the remission phase. Please advise.

Your problem of pain in the hands, legs or back maybe an extra-intestinal manifestation of ulcerative colitis. It could also be due to malabsorption. Please consult a rheumatologist.
