Do I have juvenile idiopathic arthritis?
I’m 14. The joints that hurt are my elbows wrists fingers knees ankles and toes. My back and neck hurt too. Some joints have hurt longer than others. I also read that some symptoms of jia are rashes. Two years ago I got this full body rash and now when I take a shower my feet and back itch an burn. I also kinda walk abnormally… My feet kinda turn inwards when I walk and I have flat arches. So what do you think?
i think u must see orthopedic doc u need some extra examinations
You might, but it’s unlikely. JIA/JRA is rare. Most young people with sore joints are because of growing pains.
You need to speak to your doctor. They will be able to order blood tests and x-rays. This will help the doctor work out what’s wrong.
