What’s your joint pain like?

Question

I was diagnosed in Oct. 2025 and am flaring. I’ve noticed recently that my elbows hurt, especially when I wake up. They’re really stiff and achy, there’s no stabbing pain.

My other joints feel fine, so I’m unsure if it’s even UC-related, but wondering what elbow pain/joint pain experiences others have.

The best way I can describe it is like what I imagine tennis elbow or arthritis might feel like. I’m 40, so arthritis is possible, but no reason I should have issues otherwise… like I didn’t just take up rowing.
