i'm 17 years old...and i play basketball and i workout alot...my joints are very very stiff and they creak throughout the day when i sit and stand...but i'm not in much pain....i've taken numerous blood tests and its clear that i don't have arthritis.....but my big toes look like i have a bunion on top of them...but the doctors said its not bone growth based on my x rays......i'm not in serious pain...i can still play sports as long as i take pain meds...but my joints should not be this stiff at this age...i want to join the military and my biggest concern is will they let me join...being an athlete with complications...
 
You're one brave dude. Technically they should not have a reason to stop you. If you fail the physical test though, then that would stop you. I'm not taking about checkups.
