Juvenile idiopathic arthritis causes joint inflammation, pain, and stiffness in children, which can affect movement and daily play. Physiotherapy helps keep joints flexible, muscles strong, and children active despite flare-ups.
When to see a physiotherapist: Consult a doctor promptly if a joint is persistently swollen, warm, or painful, or if stiffness and limping continue for more than a few days.
