Question
At 15 years old, I often feel knee pain during autumn and winter seasons. I have been diagnosed with growth pains and have experienced some relief after taking zinc and calcium oral liquid. However, the pain still occurs occasionally, even waking me up at night while sleeping. What are the medication treatment options for growth pains?
Answer
It is recommended to take oral Gelsemium and increase the intake of foods high in calcium. Recommended foods include dairy and dairy products, legumes and legume products, fish and seafood, meats and poultry eggs, vegetables, fruits, and dried fruits. Additionally, appropriate sun exposure can promote the generation of vitamin D in the body, which helps with calcium absorption.
