What Causes Severe Pain In The Hip When Diagnosed With Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis?
Right hip pain. Noticed bone protruding in right inner foot and when walking knee makes clicking sound. I was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis when I was 17 years old I am now 66. Have had hip pain all my life on and off but never had this bone sticking out of my foot. My leg feels like it is out of alignment. I wonder if an x-ray is needed.
Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, also known as juvenile idiopathic arthritis, is the most common type of arthritis in children under the age of 17. Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis causes persistent joint pain, swelling and stiffness. Some children may experience symptoms for only a few months, while others have symptoms for the rest of their lives. complications of rh arthritis:Systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis. The complications that may occur in systemic-onset JIA are pericarditis, hemolytic anemia, macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), and endarteritis. Patients with pericarditis often present with orthopnea and respond to intravenous (IV) corticosteroid treatment.
