Learn more about arthritis, its symptoms, diagnosis scenarios, treatment options, managing pain, and handling flare-ups. Discover strategies for dealing with the unpredictability and individuality of your child's condition. Build a support team of health-care professionals, cultivate healthy relationships within your family, and focus on what's most important-raising a happy, well-adjusted child.
