Arthritis

JA and children
Whatever the physical complications of juvenile arthritis (JA), the psychological issues are more likely to affect the lives of you and your family.

JA and young adults
Young adults with juvenile arthritis (JA)are subject to the same anxieties and concerns as young people everywhere.

JA and diet
All children need proper nutrition; those with juvenile arthritis (JA) need it more than most.

Helping kids fight arthritis
A high school counsellor and a paediatric rheumatologist, Dr Chris Scott, have joined forces to raise funds for children facing life-threatening forms of juvenile arthritis.

JA and teens
Having a child with a chronic illness such as juvenile arthritis (JA) can be emotionally draining, and physically taxing.

JA and exercise
Exercise is particularly good for juvenile arthritis (JA). It keeps the joints mobile, the muscles strong, improves general fitness and endurance.

JA and educators
As an educator or caregiver you’ll benefit greatly from understanding what juvenile arthritis (JA) is if you have a JA sufferer under your care.
