What Causes Swelling In Ankles And Knees Along With Small Raised Bumps On Legs And Hips?
My 6 year old granddaughter has swelling in her ankles, knees and maybe her wrist. She has some pain when the area is touched but no pain otherwise. She has several small raised bumps on her legs and hips. About six hours ago, we noticed the bumps but the swelling has occured in the last three hours. She is in good spirits and acting normally right now. No temperature

Hello,
She should be tested for arthritis doing total blood count with formula, sedimentation rate, anti ANA antibodies. Visit a rheumatologist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
