Patient's question:
Little baby is four years old this year and always complains of leg pain. He is quite picky about food and loves fish, but he can also eat a little of other things, but very rarely.Hello, doctor. Is it a calcium deficiency? If it is, what kind of medicine would be better?
Previous treatment history and effectiveness: We had a blood test for trace elements in the small hospital in our town, and nothing was deficient. No history of allergies or hereditary diseases.
What kind of assistance do you want: I would like to trouble the doctor to help me clarify a few things.
Doctor's answer:
Your condition is likely to be a case of growing pains. This refers to pain in the area around the knee joint or the front of the lower leg in children, with no history of trauma in these areas and normal movement. There is no redness, swelling, or tenderness locally. The recurrence of growing pains is often due to children having relatively high activity levels, rapid growth of long bones, and a lack of coordination between the growth of local muscles and tendons, leading to the recurrence of physiological pain.
