Problem description: Recently, my child keeps telling me that my legs hurt and my legs hurt. I thought it was tired from walking too much. I massaged him for a few days and still said it hurts. I want to take my child to the hospital for an examination but I don’t know. What kind of department is good? Some orthopedics on the Internet say that it is pediatrics. May I ask which department should a child have leg pain?

The child’s leg pain is related to orthopedics.
Leg pain caused by children is more common in two reasons: one is seen in growth pain; the other is seen in synovial edema and muscle strain caused by long-term running and jumping activities. Therefore, after seeing a doctor, you must look at the cause of the pain, and treat the cause to relieve the symptoms of leg pain. Because of the rapid growth of bones and the relatively slow growth of surrounding nerves, muscles, and muscles, children will have stretching pain. In addition, children have a lot of activity, and the muscles are prone to fatigue and pain over time.
Suggestion: Light diet to strengthen nutrition, pay attention to rest, appropriate calcium supplement, and local hot compress massage physiotherapy. Sit less and exercise more as soon as possible. It is necessary to strengthen exercise, enhance physical fitness, especially to strengthen the functional training of the back muscles.
