Good evening. Dont worry about the chest markings. It is not too significant here. But i think you are taking the wrong treatment for your joint pain and swelling. You need not yake aspirin. But before you delay further consult a rheumstologidt. We dont want your joints to be swollen too long and restrict ur growing bones. We need to see if it is reactive arthritis or some other form. Do let me mnow for more queries
