Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Stomach Pain, Ankle Pain, Shortness Of Breath. Has Tendonitis. Are They Related?
i have an 11 year old daughter that has been complaining of stomach pain on and off for the last year. her ankles cause her a lot of pain. she was told she has tendonitis, now the other ankle is bothering her. she also complains of shortness of breath. are the symptoms related? should she have some lab work done. her ankles have been exrayed and nothing showed up.
Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M.Forum.
Pain in her ankle joint was due to RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS & now pain is in the other ankle joint. This is an indication ( pain in other joint) that your daughter has rheumatoid arthritis.
Now your query is that she has trouble in breathing ( short breath).
History of illness is somewhat clear.
Begin with strep throat in first phase , that passed due to carelessness.
2 nd step was involvement of joint and 3 rd step was involvement of heart ( breathing ).
Now please consult a physician at once and get in blood examination for C B C, E S R, Rheumatoid factor, echo of heart, dopplers of heart, to rule our any further damage.
Good luck . Dr. HET
