Are achy legs keeping your child awake at night? They may have growing pains.

Growing pains are cramping, achy muscle pains that some preschoolers and preteens feel in both legs. The pain usually occurs in the late afternoon or evenings. But it may cause your child to wake up in the middle of the night.

Growing pains usually start in early childhood, around age 3 or 4. They tend to strike again in kids aged 8-12.

Despite the name "growing pains," there is no firm evidence that growing pains are linked to growth spurts.

Instead, growing pains may simply be muscle aches due to intense childhood activities that can wear your child's muscles out. These activities include running, jumping, and climbing. Growing pains seem to be more common after a kid has a particularly full day of sports.
Growing pains are different for everyone. Some kids have a lot of pain, others do not. Most kids do not have pain every day.e morning. They usually do not interfere with the child's ability to play sports or be active.

In general, growing pains are felt in both legs, especially in the front of the thighs, back of legs (calves), or behind the knees.


Studies suggest that children who have growing pains may be more sensitive to pain. Children who have growing pains are also more likely to have headaches and abdominal pain.

Growing pains can come and go. They may be experienced for months or even years. Most kids outgrow growing pains within a few years.

Treatment of growing pains depends on how much pain your child has. The following things may ease discomfort and help your child feel better:

Massaging the legs.
Stretching the leg muscles. This may be difficult for younger kids.
Placing a warm cloth or heating pad on the sore leg. Be careful not to burn the skin and do not use during sleep.
