By Sam Carson | Published 01/1/2007 | Chronic Pain - Pain Management | Unrated
Pediatric pain is the pain experienced when a child is affected by a disorder or a disease. A child can suffer from the usual aches and pain from growing up and from their day to day activities. But the real pain comes from chronic diseases and disorders. One type of pediatric pain is juvenile arthritis; the pain can be just as severe as the pain an adult feels. Arthritis affects the joints and with a child the pain is greater because a child is always moving about, they are playing, running, jumping and skipping.

The SI joint or the Sacroiliac joint is a small but firm joint that is located at the spot around the spine and the pelvis. When you say joints, you may think of knees, shoulders, elbow, ankle and hips but the SI joint does not have the mobility as other joints in the body do. But it is a very important part that transfers the weight of your upper body to your lower body. You may have symptoms of the SI joint pain but because this is something you hardly hear of you wouldn’t think that this is what you may have.
