Juvenile arthritis: Dear Haylee: joint stiffness, pain can vary daily in kids. Does your daughter has obvious swollen joints? Non-steroidals are the main-stay of pain management in kids with arthritis. For bed-time, relaxation techniques such a guided meditation can be very useful and children learn quickly. Heat can relieve pain so a warm bath before bed is good. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is great too!
