Sometimes it takes 6 months for complete recovery of parathyroid post surgery.

There can be many things like you are suffering from arthritis, may be high uric acid or any calcium of vitamin d3 deficiency.
Now a days sedentary life style and bad food habits provide the biggest contribution in these pains.
So get blood test done first for vit d3, uric acid and RA factor.
