Question
What should a 13-year-old take to supplement for leg pain caused by growth?
Answer
Condition Analysis: Hello, leg pain in children is generally caused by growth-related pain due to calcium deficiency, especially if the child is growing rapidly. If a child’s leg pain is diagnosed as being caused by calcium deficiency, they can take children’s Dicalcium Phosphate or Children’s Calcirol, which contain Vitamin D to promote calcium absorption. It’s also important to pay attention to the diet, increasing foods rich in calcium, such as milk, fish, shrimp shells, and seaweed. More sunlight exposure and appropriate exercise are recommended. Currently, you can supplement with Jiajia Calcium or Sanjing Calcium for two weeks.
