Question

My child frequently has leg pain. Which department should we visit at Jiangmen Beijie Hospital? The pain is usually in the thighs or calves and subsides after a while.

Answer

Case Analysis: Hello! This situation in your child could be due to growing pains, possibly caused by a lack of calcium. It is necessary to rule out conditions such as wind-dampness and rheumatoid-like diseases. It could also be due to overexertion leading to muscle fatigue. Guidance: You can come to the health center for a bone density test to rule out the possibility of calcium deficiency. If you go to the North Street clinic, you can consult with Dr. Shangguan Ming.
