Why do my joints hurt so much and I'm only 13?
I'm 18, but when I was 15 and 16 I used to get growing pains. I used to get pain in my knees, shins and hips, and I had a friend that would get growing pains in his back and shoulders when he was 14. When I got it, it felt like a cramp but it was quite sharp in my knees and hips, and it felt like I had been wacked in the shins with something. So yea, most likely growing pains
Why do my joints hurt when its cold?
Arthritis could come at any age and it could be anything and hopefully it isn't sickle cell I mean you would know that right? Sickle cell could be severe to mild and most people hurt when the weather is cold or any and often aren't yet diagnosed and it has the effects of making you feel as if you are getting pricked for example if your leg or arm got tired "sleep" and you'd feel that pain of trying to move it such as sleeping the wrong way and waking with pain in the neck Back to arthritis, I don't have a lot of info on that but when it rains the pain of arthritis could get worse, let a doctor know what's going on with you; a person is never too young to be ill even in a rare situation such as a young lady as young as "15" fifteen having arthritis
I'm 18, but joints hurt?
I'm 18, and my joints and muscles have been hurting for a while. When I was younger, I would get awful leg pain that would keep me up all night. Now, my legs still do hurt sometimes (In an aching way) but not as often. But lately, I've been having weird onset joint pain in my fingers, wrist, and elbow. Today, my hand has ached 4 different times for about 30 minutes each. I can move it fine, but it hurts really bad. I got used to my leg pain, and I thought it was just some weird thing but now my hands have been doing it, along with my feet. I know the best advice is a doctor, but hey don't come cheap. Any ideas? I think I'm much too young for arthritis, especially since i've had leg pain so long.
My joints hurt and I'm 19?
Tight muscles cause the pains. You listed a few of the harder ones that need outside help with but you can free up the muscles in your wrist to get relief there to see how it works: Wrist: With your hand resting in front of you with the palm up press into the area behind the wrist, where they take your pulse and hold a good firm pressure on it. After 30 seconds slowly bend your wrist open as far as you can, release the pressure, but hold your wrist open for another 30 seconds. For best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.
Why do my joints hurt so badly, and I am so young?
Joint pain can be caused by lots of things, most commonly arthritis. I know, you think you're young, so you can't get arthritis, and truthfully it would be unlikely for a 36 year old to get osteoarthritis (that's the kind older adults get). But there's several different types of arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis can strike at any time and is an autoimmune disorder. It occurs most often in females. Gouty arthritis can occur when uric acid crystals build up inside the body and deposit in the joints (though this type is usually described as a burning pain). This occurs more often in males, and for some reason the big toe seems to be a problem area with this type. The treatment that you need depends on the type of arthritis you have. Or perhaps it's not arthritis at all. The quick onset may indicate that you're having joint pain as the result of another disorder. Untreated Lyme Disease can cause joint pain, as can Lupus, and Fibromyalgia. But my guess, based on the stiffness and swelling that has accompanied the pain, is that it's a type of arthritis. I think you should go to the doctor. If he or she can['t figure it out, they you can get a referral to a rheumatologist who specializes in arthritis.
Why does joints hurt when it rains?
Thank you for A2A Jay DaveExperiencing joint and bone pain before rain has to do with changes in barometric pressure which is described as the weight of the atmosphere around everything. The barometric pressure drops before rain occurs which allows for the expansion of tissues. This can cause increased pressure on a broken bone or joint, and this change in pressure can lead to the feeling of pain. But there is no scientific evidence as to why joint hurt before the commencement of rains.The assumption concerning the influence of a barometric pressure on joint is still not proven. Pain related to weather changes can be relieved with pain medications before rain begins to worsen your pain considerably.You should prevent weather related pain and swelling by remaining active, stay warm with added clothing and wear skin hugging cloths which can help to prevent the fluid from gathering in the body by compressing the surrounding tissues. In most people, the body is able to adjust easily to the changes the barometric pressure thereby make the joint pain experienced during rains a short lived phenomenon.Sources:Aches, Pains, & Weather, on MedicineNet.comSouth Carolina School of Medicine
