8 Yr old constant joint pain, not hypermobile

I am going to take her to the gp, but wondering if anyone has a child with anything similar.
Her whole life she has had clicky joints, arms and legs. She is the opposite to hypermobile, she has no flexibility at all.
She is in pain a lot, with no cause. Not growing pains. Not at night. She complains about her shoulder, back, knees the most. There doesn't seem to be any swelling.
I've brought our children to a trampoline park today but she can't really do it as after a couple of bounces her knees and back are hurting. I'm thinking possibly juvenile arthritis? Everything I read on Google talks about overly flexible joints it she's the opposite. Does anyone else have a child like that?
