​ Juvenile Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease where the child’s bodily immune system fiercely attacks the joints, leading to inflammation, pain, burning, swelling, stiffness, and eventually losing the joints. It can result in swelling and limited range of motion in affected joints, making  normal everyday tasks challenging or even impossible for children wielding the chronic condition.

 In JIA, the immune system mistakenly targets the synovium, the lining of the joints, leading to joint damage over time. This chronic condition can affect multiple joints throughout the body, making daily activities challenging for those affected. Since there is no single definitive test for JIA, healthcare providers need to consider all these different pieces of information to make an accurate diagnosis. Blood tests can measure inflammatory markers and specific immune markers to help diagnose conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. In some cases, additional imaging studies such as X-rays or MRIs, as well as joint fluid analysis, may be needed to confirm the diagnosis.
