#asktheexpert hii good morning mam. every day my kids leg pain

A. If your 4-year, 3-month-old daughter complains of leg pain every day, it could be due to several common reasons. Possible Causes of Daily Leg Pain in Kids 1️⃣ Growing Pains – Common in kids 3-12 years old, usually at night. 2️⃣ Vitamin Deficiency – Low calcium, vitamin D, or iron can cause leg pain. 3️⃣ Overactivity – Running, jumping, or playing too much during the day can cause muscle fatigue. 4️⃣ Dehydration – Less water intake can lead to muscle cramps. 5️⃣ Flat Feet or Poor Footwear – If her shoes don’t support her feet properly. 6️⃣ Mild Joint Issues – If pain is around the knees or ankles, it may be due to joint weakness. How to Relieve Leg Pain? ✔ Gentle Massage – Use warm coconut or mustard oil before bedtime. ✔ Stretching Exercises – Simple toe-touching and leg stretches can help. ✔ Calcium & Vitamin D – Give milk, ragi, paneer, eggs, nuts, and morning sunlight. ✔ Stay Hydrated – Encourage her to drink enough water, coconut water, or buttermilk. ✔ Check Shoes – Ensure she wears comfortable and well-fitting shoes. ✔ Warm Bath Before Bed – Relaxes muscles and reduces pain. When to See a Doctor? ⚠ Severe pain that wakes her up at night. ⚠ Swelling, redness, or difficulty walking. ⚠ Pain in one specific leg joint (knee, ankle, or hip). ⚠ Fever, weakness, or weight loss along with pain. If it's mild and mostly at night, it's likely growing pains, which are normal. But if it's persistent, a doctor can check for nutritional deficiencies or other causes. Would you like a diet plan to help strengthen her bones and muscles?
