Is it normal for someone with arthritis in one spot to have aches, pain and weakness in other joints?

Polyarthitis: Pain in many joints at your young age is typically a medical disorder (think rheumatoid and immune disorders). Sometimes a trauma focuses you on one joint, but blood work and additional x-rays will help you sort this out with your physician. Remember to test for vitamin d deficiency as well which can cause pain in many joints, and interfere with an active lifestyle as well.
