[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think a nine year old should have back pain. I think you should see an orthopedist.[/quote] I agree with this. We did this with my child who was a teenager. Unfortunately, the ortho was dismissive and appeared to think it was all in DC's head. After several repeat visits, we got a second ortho opinion and he referred DC to a rheumatologist, who diagnosed autoimmune spinal arthritis. A good ortho should know when to refer to a rheumatologist. [/quote]
