Hi, Gabriela.

I don't know if there is a connection, but you can't go wrong by letting a doctor examine him if his pain persists or gets worse.

Poor little guy!

I have no children, but a lot of folks on this site have kids with ITP and can offer lots of advice!

Hey Gabriela!
My heart goes out to the little guy! I have no kids, but it sounds like something that i go through. I do a little too much during the day and collapse at night. Where rolling in bed is incredibly achey\painful. If I do my normal day of little activities, i'm still sore, but not nearly as bad if I were to push it. I do notice that my knees are bar far the worst. I am newly diagnosed within the past 5 or so months and still trying to figure things out. Additional input for others would be great!
