Wrist Supports for Juvenile Chronic Arthritis

Juvenile chronic arthritis is the swelling and inflammation of a joint (or more than one) that first occurs before your 16th birthday. It is more common in pre-school age children and is slightly more common in girls rather than boys. There are various types of juvenile chronic arthritis and a number of symptoms that should be looked for if believing someone to be inflicted with it such as painful or swollen joints that are warm to touch.

Wrist supports for juvenile chronic arthritis are available to help control the pain and provide compression that restricts the swelling of the limb. When found in the wrist, juvenile chronic arthritis can have a huge impact on everyday life as the weakness in the joints has a direct impact on daily tasks, however simple they may seem. Some types of juvenile chronic arthritis will disappear as you grow older, but until that time, wearing a wrist support is an ideal solution for helping to control the symptoms. 

There are a wide range of wrist supports for juvenile chronic arthritis available, all suitable for children with bright colours and a little added fun to help to distract them from the discomfort felt.
