Both children had experienced fever and mild respiratory tract infection. At the beginning of the second week of infection, they developed joint effusion. They both tested positive for coronavirus infection and were therefore diagnosed with post Coronavirus reactive arthritis. Both children were treated successfully with rest and Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID).
