Brief Answer:
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
You don't mention the age of your son or if he has any other symtoms. Does he have swelling elsewhere? Is he otherwise feeling well? Does he have a fever. Does he have any medical conditions?
The first diagnosis that XXXXXXX to mind would be an inflammatory arthritis such as Juvenile idiopathic arthritis which could present in this way. This could be confirmed with X-rays and blood work. The treatment usually starts with an anti-inflammatory drug such as Naprosyn taken twice a day and then progresses to other medication if the symptoms do not improve.
I would encourage you to see your family Dr to have a further assessment and the necessary test.
Best wishes
I did tell you that my son was 57 years old; and that he had swollen hands with redness and warmth. He has a rash on his upper body. Could there be a connection between the rash and swollen hands?
Brief Answer:
Yes all may be explained by inflammatory arthritis
Detailed Answer:
hi,
sorry his age was not clear in the initial question. yes the rash and the swollen joints could be related as it could all be part of an inflammatory arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis. I would recommend that he see's a rheumatologist. in the mean time an antiinflammatory drug such as naprosyn may help as well as physiotherapy.
