Question
The newborn has been crying and restless recently. The examination did not find any abnormalities. What are the common symptoms of growth pain?
Answer
During the period of childhood growth, calcium deficiency may cause growth pain, characterized by irregular and varying degrees of limb pain, particularly in the joints of the lower limbs. If other diseases are ruled out and it is solely growth pain, calcium should be supplemented in a timely manner and attention should be paid to nutritional intake.
