Patient's question:
I'm 18 years old this year. I noticed it when I came down in the morning. There's no problem walking or going up and down stairs normally, but there's some soreness in the knees when I crouch or sit down. However, once I'm crouched, it doesn't hurt anymore. The soreness isn't very painful. Now at night, it's much better than when I first came down in the morning, but there's still some soreness. I saw online that joint pain might be lupus, so it's hard to come here and ask for help. What kind of help do you need? I saw online that joint pain might be lupus.Doctor's answer:
Is your pain lasting for just a day or two, or has it been ongoing? If it's just occasional pain for one or two times, it's normal. Sleeping in an incorrect position during naps at night can cause soreness. If the pain is long-term, it's recommended to see a doctor. As for lupus, it's highly unlikely to develop so easily. Don't worry too much. Wishing you good health and growth.Growing pains can be quite harmful to children, so it's advisable for parents to take their child to a specialist for a follow-up examination and treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, you can provide your child with enough care and attention, pay close attention to their diet, and hope they can recover as soon as possible!
