Growing pain refers to pain in the area around the knee joint or the front of the lower leg in children, with no history of trauma and normal movement. The affected area shows no redness, swelling, or tenderness. Growing pain is characterized by muscular pain and generally does not require special treatment. When the pain recurs, the most effective solution is to provide local massage and cold compresses for the child to help reduce the pain level and ensure psychological care and a sense of security.
