A member asked:

My 8 y/o son is complaining of random joint pain. at first it was his foot, which stayed painful for 3 weeks, now his knee. no bruising/swelling?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pediatric joint pain: Please be evaluated by pediatrician and have blood work done to rule out juvenile arthritis. Not likely, but it does exist and it does not sound as if he has been properly evaluated anyway.
