Arthritis can attack you at any age. You need to see your doctor while it is "active." They will do appropriate labs on you, check your inflammation level, etc. Depending on the results, you may be sent to a specialist, a rheumatologist, who can give you medication to help, but don't "self-medicate" til you are sure.
You can go to the Dollar Store and get "Cool Gel," or a pharmacy and get Aspercreme, for temporary relief.
Hope you feel better soon!
