Hello
According to your description, the most common condition in this case is growing pains. You can visit an orthopedics department for consultation. Knee X-rays, trace element tests, and alkaline phosphatase tests related to bones can be performed.
The occurrence of pediatric orthopedic diseases severely affects the health of patients. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients need to pay more attention to daily care.
