Arthritis Feedback: Juvenile Arthritis is very serious, it won’t kill you but it is a horrible thing. If there is any chance your brother’s friend has it, he should see a specialist immediately.
It is unlikely though, this is an uncommon condition.
Arthritis Feedback: Odds are it’s just growing pains. Juvenile arthritis is pretty rare. It doesn’t kill you, it causes severe pain that you life with.
Arthritis Feedback: You asked this a few minutes ago in a different way. You were told about juvenile arthritis there I believe because I just answered it. Anyway this is a disease that he may or may not outgrow, it all depends on how bad it is. If it’s as bad as the other question about the 12 year old boy then you were also informed that it could be something else but this is the most common. The boy will need a doctor to follow his care along with possibly some physical therapy, again up to the doctor. Please the doctor is the only one that can find out how bad by doing some blood work and other testing. You can also go to for allot more information on juvenile arthritis.Again good luck.
Arthritis Feedback: Joint detreation does not kill anyone
.
It only makes movements more painful
.
and life not as much fun
.
But it don’t kill
.
Arthritis Feedback: It doesn’t kill you you live with it until you die. It is a disease of the auto-immune system so getting infections is likely.
Arthritis Feedback: yes it is something that your brothers friend will have till the day he dies, but when he does die it will not be from juvenile arthritis. If it is arthritis it will ALWAYS be classified as JUVENILE ARTHRITIS even when he is a adult, as this “term” is what allows the doctors to be aware that it was found to be arthritis in the juvenile years.
