He has not had any fatigue, headaches rashes or fevers and always seems healthy. Could he have a disease

thigh, ankle and heel pain are common finding in growing age of children
Generally it's harmless but if associated symptoms like weakness, fatigue are there then some associated illness should be looked for
In the mean time we can observe the child
But why Ana test was carried out
if further details were available could have been much of help
