Question 5

6yr old has joint pain pos ana high esr  pediatrician says its jra but her rhuemo says from flat feet and her podiatrist says its not from flat feet?

Accepted Answer

Get a 2nd opinion: This is impossible to answer without a personal examination of the child. However, an elevated ESR and a positive ANA give me cause for concern. I would suggest a 2nd opinion with another rheumatologist, especially a prediatric rheumatologist if one is available in your area.

Question 6

i have flat foot i use customize orthotics made by a podiatrist, why when i inline skate my lower back kill me?

Accepted Answer

? wrong for skate: Skates can be difficult to fit with standard orthotics. Furthermore, the mechanics affected by an orthotic for standing/walking can be different than those used during a skating stride. Skates often require "shimming" between the boot and blade holder to resolve foot mechanic issues rather than orthotics.
