Suggest Remedy For Painful Legs In Children
I have a 10 year old son who has started complaining of leg pain for the last 2 days. How can you tell if this is just common growing pain/ leg pain or something more serious?? He s usually a very active child, and seems like all he wants to do is just lay on the couch the last 2 days. He recently had a cold but, seems to have recovered from that.
