What Causes Severe Pain In Legs?

My seventeen year old daughter complains often of growing pains in her leg. Only ever one leg and it appears to be in the upper shin/knee area. She doesn t exercise, is neither thin nor overweight, and can pinpoint no specific trauma that could have caused it. Should I get this checked out?

Hello,

What it appears to me that there will be some vitamin deficiency in your daughter which is common in many kids nowadays.

Taking an oral supplement of Vitamin D along with Sunbath regular for a few days will help improve the symptoms.

Rest assured, there is nothing much to worry and your daughter will be fine soon.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
