12 years old and sickkkkk?

ok so like 2 weeks ago i went to the doctors because my elbows & wrists hurt really bad and my veins were showing up black through my skin. he said it is just parvovirus and should go away on its own. Now you can see my veins even more and all of my joints hurt. I also have a bad cough, headache, and when ever I cough my stomach hurts really bad. My wrists, fingers, elbows, knees, and ankles all hurt really bad! My mom said I just have the flu and this parvovirus but I dont think so. Im 12 what should I do? plus i have bruises on my arms that come from nowhere?

Answer:
I agree with US Govt, you have the symptoms of parvovirus B19 and you probably got it at school. The pain in your joints is a temporary arthritis called arthralgia. Yes it hurts really bad, I know because I've had it myself. I could hardly get myself dressed (in fact I needed help sometimes) and I couldn't even change my baby's diapers. Your mom could maybe ask your doctor about an analgesic to help. Joint pain usually lasts 1-3 weeks.
This virus usually starts with fever and feeling sick and is mostly in your bloodstream.
If you are African-American and have sickle blood cells, you will need to go back to your doctor. Otherwise YOU WILL BE FINE!
It will just take time.
I will be thinking of you!
Tell ur parents and make them take u to the hospital
You need to go see the doc right now. Tell you mom if she doesn't take you to the doc you are calling someone to take you. You tell her you have gotten advice from a nurse that says you should be seen by a doc tonight for safety sake. You have more than the flu and parvovirus.
Pavro virus is something dogs have! It is NOT transferable to humans. What game are you playing?
Easy bruising could be just something that is part of the parvo, but there are a couple of serious things it could be.
Tell your mom a nosy nurse, suggested this, and that it doesn't mean I think she's a bad mom or anything.
It's hard to understand, but when you are twelve, sometimes it seems like people are not understanding you, or believing you when they actually are, so try talking to your mom about the bruises, and tell her what you are worried about,(or scared about), but please do it calmly.
When you are your age, your body has an amazing ability to heal, so try not to worry too much. Hope you get well soon!
People can get parvo, the usual things to do for that are _rest_ and eat right. The doctor may have explained more about it to your mom, or both of you but it 's hard to listen and remember sometimes when you are upset.
Well you probably have Parvorius B19, which shows up as Fifths disease aka erythema infectiousum, these symptoms will last bout 1-3 weeks and then should resolve. As long as you dont have sickle cell disease, or another hemiglobinopathy you should be ok :-)
