Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Hello, your child's symptoms are growing pains. Some children may lack calcium during this period, but calcium supplementation does not help much in relieving growing pains. The reason for growing pains is not in the bones but in the fatigue of soft tissues. The most important thing is to get timely rest.Suggestions for treatment: If your child feels discomfort in the knees or calves, do not force them to do more exercise. Before going to bed every night, soak your child's feet and calves in warm water. However, when your child is not tired, encourage them to be more active to strengthen muscle strength and promote the natural correction of tibial deformities. When the pain is severe, local massage, pain relievers, and a moderate intake of vitamin C can be used. With proper rest, exercise, massage, and symptomatic medication, growing pains in children will heal quickly without leaving any aftereffects or affecting normal growth and development.
