Boy, 10 years old Juvenile idiopathic arthritis

Patient's question:

Juvenile oligoarticular arthritis, onset in December 2009, redness, swelling, and pain in one finger joint and one toe joint

Doctor's answer:

Hello, rheumatoid arthritis is a relatively stubborn and easily recurring disease, but the main goal is to control it and prevent further progression, as well as to relieve pain. Your child is currently in the acute phase of development and needs treatment with anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving medications (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), immunosuppressants, Tripterygium glycosides, and so on. It is best to hospitalize for observation and treatment for a period of time until the condition stabilizes, and then take medication properly to control it.
