According to Ayurveda the three doshas, i.e. Vata, Pitta and Kapha dosha govern the health of a human being and it is necessary to be in equilibrium in order to have proper health. Imbalance of any of the three dosha can result in various diseases. Here in JIA Vata dosha starts to get accumulated in the body because it cannot be eliminated naturally from the body owing to certain reasons like hereditary factors, improper diet or sedentary lifestyle. This accumulation of Vata dosha results in inflammation of the joints and their related signs and symptoms.

The common signs and symptoms of JIA are:

  • Pain - A child would complain about the pain in the joints or if they do not tell you to notice the limps (without any injury) especially when he/she gets up from the bed after a nap or in the morning.

  • Stiffness - Walk of the child becomes clumsy especially when getting up after a long rest like after sleep.
  • In certain cases high grade fever, rashes on the upper body or swollen lymph nodes can be seen. These complaints become worse in the evening.
