AB Arthritis  is  a  clinical  finding  of  persistent  joint  swelling  or  painful  restriction  of  joint  movement.  Arthralgia  is  pain  in  a  joint,  with  or  without  inflammation.  Thus,  a  patient  with  arthralgia  will  not  necessarily  have  arthritis,  nor  does  a  patient  with  arthritis  always  have  arthralgia.  There  are  many  causes  of  arthritis  and  arthralgia  in  children,  and  this  section  will  be  limited  to  the  chronic  arthritides  of  childhood  that  have  no  known  cause.
