The Price of the Joint Pain Package is Rs. 3690. However, the cost of test may fluctuate depending on following factors:
- Offers or discounts
- Empanelment of the patient
What is the Purpose of the Joint Pain Package ?
The Joint Pain Package is advised for the following analysis:
- Screening: By detecting early indications of diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or gout, this package is used to screen for possible causes of joint pain even before symptoms worsen.
- Diagnosis: When a patient presents with persistent joint pain, this package helps diagnose the specific causes of the pain by offering comprehensive information to identify conditions like infections, autoimmune disorders, or metabolic diseases.
- Monitoring: When the Joint Pain Package is used on a regular basis, it becomes possible to monitor established conditions continuously, track the course of the disease, evaluate the efficacy of treatment, and modify management strategies as needed.
- Assessing the Effect of Medical Conditions and Treatments: In order to provide comprehensive care by keeping an eye on the wider impact on the patient's overall health status, it is also used to assess how other medical conditions or treatments are affecting joint health.

Tests Included in Joint Pain Package
12 Tests are included in this Package, which are:
- ANA (IFA)
- Complete Blood Count( CBC/Haemogram)
- CREATININE
- CRP (Quantitative)
- Erythrocytes Sedimentation Rate (ESR)
- RA Factor Quantitative
- Urine Complete Examination Automation
- Uric Acid
- Anti CCP /Antibody to Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide
- Calcium
- Phosphorus
- Intact PTH-Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)
Significance of Each Test in Joint Pain Package
- ANA (IFA): Antinuclear antibodies, which are commonly observed in autoimmune diseases such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), are detected by means of this test. Common symptoms of these conditions include stiffness, swelling, and joint pain. Such autoimmune disorders can be identified by a positive ANA test, which can lead to additional diagnostic testing and help with the early diagnosis and treatment of these conditions.
- Complete Blood Count (CBC/Haemogram): A vital diagnostic and surveillance tool for a wide range of illnesses, including anemia, infections, clotting issues, immune system disorders, and hematological malignancies like leukemia, is the complete blood count (CBC). It helps in the early detection of possible health problems and offers crucial information for the evaluation of general health.
- Creatinine: The breakdown of a substance called creatine by muscles results in the waste product creatinine. The kidneys remove it from the blood and excrete it in the form of urine. One way to evaluate renal function is to measure the levels of creatinine in the blood and urine.
- CRP (Quantitative): The liver produces a chemical called C-Reactive Protein (CRP) in reaction to inflammation. A quantitative CRP test determines the blood's CRP level to determine whether or not inflammation is present and how severe it is.
- Erythrocytes Sedimentation Rate (ESR): The blood test known as the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) calculates the speed at which red blood cells, or erythrocytes, sink to the bottom of a test tube over a predetermined amount of time, usually an hour. Red blood cell loss is a good indicator of both the presence and degree of inflammation within the body.
- RA Factor Quantitative: The Rheumatoid Factor (RF) test counts the quantity of blood antibodies that are present in the body. An autoantibody called RF, which is capable of attacking healthy tissue, is linked to autoimmune illnesses, most notably RA.
- Urine Complete Examination Automation: An automated laboratory test called a Urine Complete Examination (also called a urinalysis) examines different elements of urine. This test aids in the detection and monitoring of a number of illnesses, such as diabetes, kidney disease, metabolic disorders, and urinary tract infections (UTIs).
- Uric Acid: A waste product known as uric acid is created when purines, which are present in a variety of foods and bodily cells, break down. Normally, it dissolves in blood and is eliminated in urine by the kidneys. Urine and blood uric acid levels can be measured to detect, track, and diagnose disorders involving the metabolism and excretion of uric acid.
- Anti CCP /Antibody to Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide: It detects the presence of specific autoantibodies that target citrullinated proteins. These autoantibodies are strongly associated with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and can help in the early and accurate diagnosis of the disease.
- Calcium: This test aids in the diagnosis of diseases that can cause joint pain and fragile bones, such as osteoporosis and osteomalacia. Additionally, abnormal calcium levels may be a sign of parathyroid or metabolic diseases that impair joint and bone health. In order to evaluate the general health of the bones and determine the best course of action for joint-related disorders, calcium monitoring is essential.
- Phosphorus: In a joint pain package, the phosphorus test is crucial because it aids in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases like osteomalacia and other bone disorders that can lead to bone fragility and joint pain. Kidney failure can also be indicated by abnormal phosphorus levels, which has an impact on bone metabolism and health. For the purpose of evaluating bone health and determining potential metabolic or renal causes of joint pain, phosphorus monitoring is crucial.
- Intact PTH-Parathyroid Hormone (PTH): The evaluation of parathyroid function and its effect on the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus is aided by this test. A hyper- or hypoparathyroidism state can cause bone pain, joint pain, osteoporosis, or osteomalacia. Abnormal PTH levels can be a sign of either of these conditions. The diagnosis and treatment of metabolic bone disorders, which cause joint pain, depend on PTH monitoring.
Preparation for Joint Pain Package
- You need not to fast before giving samples for this comprehensive joint health testing.
- Better drink adequate water before sample collection.
- Avoid vigorous physical activity before the sample collection.
- Follow the preparatory instructions as guided by your doctor.
Sample Collection for Joint Pain Package
For a Urine Sample
- For a Urine Sample, you need to get your sample collected in a clean laboratory vial provided by the lab.
For a Blood/Serum/Plasma Sample
- The area where the needle will be inserted to take your blood is cleaned with an antiseptic alcohol wipe. The hollow on the inside side of the elbow or the tip of the finger are the most common sites for this.
- A tourniquet or a band is tied around your upper arm to facilitate access to the vein in your arm.
- A needle is used to puncture your vein. The blood sample is collected into a test tube attached to the needle. The needle may cause a small pinch or sting when it is inserted.
- Once the vial or test tube is filled, the blood sample collection for the test is finished, and the needle is taken out.
- Finger pressure is applied to the puncture site to stop the bleeding, and the bandage is applied at the site.
