1 12-year-old boy suffered from hip pain for half a year, and his family mistakenly thought it was caused by growth pain. After many visits, it still didn't get better until it was referred to the children's allergy and immunity clinic, and the doctor diagnosed it as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Yang Shuwen, a physician at the Center for Allergy and Asthma Immunity of Changhua Xiuchuan Memorial Hospital, pointed out that the patient only took nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and disease-regulating and anti-rheumatic drugs, but he still felt pain until he was given biological drugs with the consent of the health insurance department, and finally gradually improved. Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is mainly due to chronic synovitis of unknown causes in the joint, which leads to the injury of articular cartilage and subchondral hard bone; Yang Shuwen said that it sometimes encroaches on the surface of joints or ligaments around joints, which is a common connective tissue disease in childhood. Dr. Yang Shuwen further explained that the injury caused by exercise, wound infection, the overreaction of human immune system caused by influenza virus infection, or juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. , may cause arthritis in children. In the diagnosis, in addition to the patient must be under 16 years old, there will be more than one joint inflammation, and the symptoms will last for more than six weeks, so as to prescribe the right medicine and obtain effective curative effect. Compared with arthritis in children, growth pain mostly occurs in the lower limbs, and the pain is located in the deep part, mostly in the afternoon or evening, and has nothing to do with joint parts; Yang Shuwen warned that arthritis is no longer a patent for the elderly. If the child has similar symptoms, he should seek medical examination as soon as possible. As long as you can follow the doctor's advice, most of them can be relieved.
