What’s wrong with me!? What could it be?

Question

I always have realllyyyy bad aches and pains over my body. I am literally an 90 year old women trapped in a 15 year olds body. I get pains in my neck, and ankles. The worst is my knees and hips. My wrist don’t ache as much as anything else but it’s one of the worst also. It will hurt so bad to walk or go up the stairs. I always get bad aches in random spots of my leg too. It’s miserable. I play volleyball btw. I haven’t grown in a year so I can’t say growing pains anymoret. I was 5’6 last year and I still am. Something’s literally always hurting and I’m scared when I get older it’ll get even worse. Other than going to the doctor, what could it be? How can I not feel like this?

Answer

It could be sooooo many things. 
Firstly, I would make sure you are drinking at least 2 litres of water every day. Dehydration can seriously make your body ache. 
Secondly, make sure you’re doing plenty of exercise. I know it sounds stupid suggesting that to someone who is in pain but exercise is sooooo important for your body. Do light walking every day if that’s all you can handle. If your doctor approves, try at in some weight exercises, squats, planks, lunges etc. it’ll all help. 
Also, look at your diet. Cut out processed foods and see how you go from there. You might also need to cut out any inflammatory foods. You can google a list of foods that cause inflammation and then see how much of those foods you have in your diet. 
Then look at your backpack for school, heavy handbags, your shoes (you may need more supportive shoes), your mattress. All of these things can contribute to aches and pains all over your body. 
If you can afford it, go to a chiropractor. Your hips might be out of whack, you back might need adjustments. Seriously, my chiro helped with EVERYTHING. It I wasn’t saving for my house I would be at the chiro twice a week. 
Pay attention to your posture too. Try to sit up straight. Don’t look down at your phone so much. It can cause issues with your neck and back that can affect the rest of your body and cause pain everywhere. 
Good luck. I hope it gets sorted soon so you are pain free ASAP.

I always have pains!! I’m 13 now and started my period when I was around 10! Its painful but I have once gone without having a period for 6 and a half months! Then come on for about 3 months! It’s never regular but it’s picking up a bit now! It’s hard but you just have to deal with it! Eat chocolate and have a hot water bottle, heat pads, a load of tampons and pads, blanket, water next to you and your all set! Try not to do a lot if you can help it! Xxx
