16y/o F, chronic inflammatory pain in joints and to a lesser degree muscle, swimmer, slightly obese.....ESR slightly high and hematocrit low...she keeps getting red, bruise like areas on soles of feet and palms of hands. painful, but not terrible. what could cause this.
Hi, With history it guides me towards infection in the body which is not subsided. You need to check out since how long you been facing this and since how long the ESR is on high scale.  Any Infection staying longer is not good for Hymen body at all.  Having pain in small joints or the pain shifting from joints to joints will be indicative of RA.  Having a word with a physician should help you understand the whole situation and with medication you need to control and remove the infection from the body for good. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Jay In Chat Doctor.
