Patient's question:
For three or four years, I used to be told by doctors that it was growing pains. X-rays were taken and said everything was fine, and I was also checked for rheumatism, which was also fine. Before, it was said that it was knee pain, and it only hurt when I was very active, but recently, it has been said that my elbow also hurts, and it happens more frequently. I don't know what the reason is.Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: The child's joint pain is commonly caused by growing pains, which will disappear after calcium supplementation treatment. It will not persist long-term. Currently, it is necessary to rule out the possibility of rheumatism and consider the possibility of joint tendon injury.Advice: Local examination should be conducted to check for any tender points. If tender points are present, tendon injury should be considered. If necessary, medical tests such as blood tests can be performed. Appropriate calcium supplementation is recommended.
