Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Why Does My Son Complain Of Pain In Hips And Shoulder?
Yes my nine year old son has been complaining of pain in his hips and most recently his right shoulder. Last week I noticed some lumps coming up on his leg. One on his shin bone and the other just below the knee. Then last night I noticed a lump the size of a golf ball right above his clavicle bone. He has not been sick as in a cold or anything recently. But I have noticed that he is very pale, more tired then usual, has excessive night sweats, and is always itching badly. Should I be concerned?
