Dear Anonymous,
JOINT pain is a condition that may not exactly point to one thing. Joint pain can be caused by many types of injuries or conditions. No matter what the cause is, joint pain can be bothersome. It can be caused by infections, malaria and flu.

A major wear and tear of bones as well as trauma can cause primary joint pain. It is hard to tell the real cause unless you see a doctor and explain the pain.

Following the information that you give, the doctor will ascertain if the pain coexists with other symptoms, pointing to a condition or if the joint pain could be primary.
