Joint Pain at 18 (Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis)?

I will be 18 on the 22nd of this month and I have been experiencing joint pain in my hands and wrist. I don’t get it all the time but it comes every few weeks/months. Many have said its because I’m still growning but I’m not sure I believe that. I don’t play any sports so it couldn’t be because if that. Do I have Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis? I am very fit (5′4, 105lbs) and work out every day. So could it still be growing pains?

I have a 7 year old son with severe knee pain?

My 7 year old son about 2 months ago started to complain that his knees hurt. As the month went on, it got worse. We took him to the doctor who ran a bunch of blood tests. Lyme test negative, normal results for normal blood work. His SED rate was slightly higher (meaning he had a swollen joint….we knew that) and ONE of his ANA results was slightly high as well. We were told to go to a rheumitolist which we are, but not until 8/28. Each day the knees seem worse. Motrin helps slightly and he is walking like an old man. Our pediatrician said it could be juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. He is very into sports and the idea of him having arthritis at such a young age is scaring me. Has anyone out there ever heard of a child having this? OR what else could it be? BE HONEST!!! Details, symptoms, etc. Thanks for any advice. PS. We ruled out growing pains as they do not last this long and you do not get swollen knees from that.

im 14 and ive done many sports in my life, like dance, gymnastics, baseball, basketball, volleyball, soccer and lacrosse and during the last year i have been have lots of joint pain, mostly in my ankles and in my wrists, but lately its been in my finger joints. it is very painful, it hurts the most after playing a soccer game but it hurts almost every night, sometimes to the point where i am in tears and am unable to bear it. do you think this sounds like juvenile arthritis? if not what might it be? also do you think the fact that i used to have scoliosis might be a reason for my joint pain?

He runs a few times a week and plays sports. Should he strengthen certain muscles? Stretch? Wear a brace? Can it not be reversed?

This is a friend of mine, who has always been active and likes sports, but has recently been diagnosed with arthritis in both knees. She was advised to lose weight too, so the knees would not have to work hard carrying the extra weight.
What kind of exercise would be good for someone with knee replacement?
