Symptoms of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA)
When it comes to juvenile idiopathic arthritis, the symptoms may only appear during flare-ups, or they may even be chronic. The symptoms of juvenile idiopathic arthritis tend to vary from child to child. Some of the symptoms may include:
- Inflammation of the eye
- Visible redness and warmth in a joint
- Inability to make use of affected joints
- Fatigue
- Loss of appetite
- Weight Loss
- High Fever
- Stiff and swollen several joints around the body
- Swollen lymph nodes
While some of these symptoms are quite visible, it is necessary to ensure that the child consults medical personnel for proper diagnosis, as these may even seem like other regular health conditions.
