Most children with JIA are able to live a normal active life. For some, however, the symptoms may cause problems that make everyday life difficult. Your child may find it difficult to walk, bend, get dressed or wash by themselves. There is a great deal of support available for children with JIA. As well as the team of healthcare professionals treating your child, there are support groups who can offer advice and information.
