What Causes Swelling In Wrist And Ankle?
My daughter went to ER. Her symptoms were swollen ankle one day, swollen wrist the next. They said RA and sent her home while screening for gonorrhea and pregnancy. NOW, the very next day she feels horrible and has a sore throat that is actually bleeding.

I have gone through your query and being your physician I completely understand your health concerns.
Based upon the descriptiom provided , she needs to be examined by the RHEUMATOLOGIST so that she can be properly managed. She should be investigated for the RHEUMATIC FEVER.
There is need to get the FBC, ESR and ASO antibodies.
Meanwhile stay calm and use acetaminophen to relieve pain
