Patient's question:
I am 53 years old. Recently, as I have gotten older, I have been experiencing leg pain. I have previously visited the immunology department, but the effect was not significant. I have taken both Chinese and Western medicine, especially when the weather changes, I feel uncomfortable. Could you please tell me what are the causes of juvenile idiopathic arthritis?Doctor's answer:
Most cases of children's rheumatoid disease are caused by various factors such as catching a cold and streptococcal infection. The condition is relatively severe, and if not treated actively, it can easily lead to rheumatic heart disease, affecting heart function and consequently impacting overall health, normal exercise, training, and daily life. It is essential to promptly visit a reputable private Grade A hospital for orthopedics or rheumatology and immunology to seek follow-up treatment. Specialized doctors will prescribe appropriate penicillin-based anti-inflammatory drugs, anti-rheumatic medications, and symptomatic treatments based on the actual condition. At the same time, nursing care should be strengthened to prevent catching a cold, getting a cold, and exposure to cold and moisture. Regular follow-up tests should also be conducted.
