Get checked.: Swelling of the joints can have several causes, some serious, some not so serious. Please get seen and evaluated and get the appropriate testing indicated by the history and physical your doctor performs. Do the swollen joints hurt? Rheumatic fever, rheumatoid arthritis & gout are possible causes. If painless, Lyme disease and psoriasis are possibilities. There are more causes as well. See MD!
