Hi Kazzie, I was diagnosed with RA in June but have been having symptoms since March...I have it pretty bad all over my body but one of the worst places is my knees! When I'm having a flare up my knees often feel warm in the middle of my knee caps, when I'm getting up and down from sitting the pain is excruciating and I do I have slight aches in my hips...don't get me started on the other symptoms lol x

I have the most excruciating pain in my hips which is frusting as it makes everything a struggle. I tend to waddle. My fiance says i am a cross between the tin man and douglas barder! But when looking RA it says hips is unusal. I am 30 diagnosed in March but the latest flare up has been the worst. have needed a walking stick for a few days

Hi all, The 2 main symptoms of my PA are flare ups and pain in the knee (right one) and hips. May be worth checking if you have PA? I'm going for my 8th draining of my knee on monday and 5th steroid injection of the year. My hips normally start to burn when i walk over about 400 yards.
