My son who is 11 came out of bed just now and was having a bad nightmare. He was totally upset and his heart was racing. Yesterday he was complaining about sore joints in his arms and hands. Now he says they feel like balloons. He also has a headache but no fever. He is also a bit nauseous .
Hi, it is advisable to get your son checked up for rheumatic fever. It can cause all these symptoms, it can be confirmed by few blood tests.
