  • Snapshot
    • A 3-year-old boy presents to the emergency department due to worsening joint pain, fever, and a new rash. He is accompanied by his mother who reports that he has been pointing at his knee and hip while crying. She believes he has been having this symptom for approximately 2 months. He has been having 1-2 fevers a day, and she reports seeing a "pink-like" rash. On physical exam, there is an evanescent salmon-colored rash on the left thigh. There is tenderness to palpation of the left knee and hip with limited range of motion. Lab results show an elevated ESR, CRP, and positive ANA. A pediatric rheumatologist is consulted for further evaluation.
