Knee and wrist agony

I'm 24+4 and lately I've had terrible carpal tunnel in my hands, the other night I woke up and couldn't bend any of my fingers they were so stiff.

Then I woke up yesterday with the most horrendous pain in my knee. It has been constant ever since, i can stand on it but bending it is excruciating. I have tried icing it which doesn't help and you can't use deep heat or painkillers.

My DH is worried and wants me to go to the docs but every time I mention something at midwife appointments they just shrug and say meh, it's a pregnancy thing. So I feel like there isn't much point.

Does anyone else have this? I'm about to go on holiday and the thought of being sat on a plane is not filling me with joy!

You can take paracetamol, 8 over 24 hours.
