Pain - any ideas?

My DS 10 has complained of 'growing pains' consistently over several years. He used to say that his knees were painful and over the years, I've taken him to the GP a few times but they never seem to think it is anything to worry about. Over the past few months, things seem to have become much worse: he now complains of pain in his knees but also under his finger and how nails, in his neck and elbows and a little bit in his back. I intend to make an appt with the GP asap but has anyone had anything similar with their DC? Am at a loss to know what this is. He has very 'clicky' joints too. I have looked at juvenile arthritis but he doesn't seem to fit their descriptions...

Have a look at hypermobility if he has clicks joints. My now adult son has this and was very similar when he was young. X

If he has clicking joints I mean. Blush
