Hi sandy11,

Welcome to EmpowHER.  For some people, hypothyroidism can contribute to joint and muscle problems.

Specifically, hypothyroidism may lead to:

  • Muscle aches, tenderness and stiffness, especially in the shoulders and hips
  • Joint pain and stiffness
  • Swelling of the knee joint and small joints in the hands and feet
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome

Here is a link that might be helpful

Best,
