Question
What should be supplemented for growth pains? I mainly have leg pain, which has been a growth pain for two days now. What is the treatment situation?
Answer
Growth pains are a manifestation during the peak of growth, where the rate of bone growth in children exceeds that of the surrounding nerves and tendons, causing misalignment in other muscles and nerves. Generally, as children grow older and their rate of height increase slows down, the pain gradually diminishes and disappears. Pay attention to staying warm, engage in appropriate activity, and supplement with calcium as needed.
