My son who is 5.5years,108cms, 17.8kgs is frequently complaining of calf muscle and thigh muscle pain at night. Some nights he wakes up and i have to massage his legs to make it go away. what is the cause for this? he has about 200ml of milk and one medium bowl of yogurt everyday, besides fruits like bananas, apples and guava. He also has one boiled egg everyday and chicken/fish once a week. Is he deficient? he also has about 2 multivitamin gummies daily as recommended by his doctor.
Hi...by what you say this doesn't look like muscle pain. It looks like growth pain due to increase in height. You can use vitamin D supplements for this. This will improve by itself. Regards -
