A Incorrect. The classic symptoms of JRA are not severe joint pain that varies from sharp to burning pain.
B Correct. The classic symptoms of JRA are morning immobility, stiffness, and joint pain.
C Incorrect. The classic symptoms of JRA are not swollen joints that are irregular in shape. These are the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, not JRA.
D Incorrect. The classic symptoms of JRA are not nighttime pain that causes difficulty sleeping. This symptom may indicate growing pains or pain because the long bones grow faster than the attached muscles and typically occurs at night.
