See your school nurse and ask. You know they are smart
November 23rd, 2009 at 7:32 pmTRY SOME MSM IT’S REAL GOOD FOR ACHES AND PAINS. SOMETIMES TEENAGERS GET THESE WHEN THEY’RE GROWING. IF NOT CHECK THIS OUT WITH A DR AND SEE IF YOU CAN FIND A REASON FOR THE PAIN. I HAD PROBLEMS AT YOUR AGE TOO WITH MY JOINTS. I ALSO USED THINGS LIKE BENGAY.
November 23rd, 2009 at 7:32 pmcould be a mineral deficiency of potassium and Magnesium. Do not medicate yourself as to much potassium is worse then not enough.
A good multiple vitamin like Centrum works. But break it in half when you take it as the outside is hard and sometimes does not dissolve in your stomach.
Also the spiny mesquite pods ground into flour have the minerals your body can use too.
Go to your Dr and have him do some blood work and ask for an electrolyte panel on your blood work and a potassium level. Should be between 4 and 5. If mine goes below 4. I hurt all over. Mornings are worse. I use one of the heating pad blanket thing that is to put on the mattress. The heat at night helps plus I use an electric blanket on top. If you are playing football drink some of the sports drinks that have these minerals in them.
November 23rd, 2009 at 7:32 pmJust because Juvinille rheumatoid arthritis doesn’t run in your family doesn’t mean you don’t have it. There are many symptoms to it, that may exculded the common ones listed. See your doctor, get referred to a rheumatoidologist.
November 23rd, 2009 at 7:32 pmI had this type of pain when I was young. Recently I found out I’ve had Lymes disease for 20+ years. If this pain started recently and suddenly, and/or you might have been bitten by a tick, then research the symptoms of Lymes compared to what you have. If caught quicly, Lymes symptoms can be stopped.
November 23rd, 2009 at 7:32 pmDon’t despair. It may be the old "growing pains". See your doctor to give you peace of mind so that you avoid getting anxiety over the matter.
November 23rd, 2009 at 7:32 pmIt sounds like growing pain. Growing pain isn’t just intellectual, as many people think. It can also be physical. The human body grows until an estimated age of 28 years. If the bones or cartlidge grow too fast, it can cause pain beyond a person’s comprehension. I would see a doctor immediately and not wait until next semester. It seems like you need a doctors attention as soon as possible.
November 23rd, 2009 at 7:32 pmfirst go to a orthopedician and have the necessary tests done. since it is a chronic condition there may be some underlying pathology.
November 23rd, 2009 at 7:32 pmI get that pain now and then but @ your age it is probably down to your exercise,I’m a jockey and have a family. My edest is 21, he is a pony a rider, the second is a horse rider and my daughter is training!
