What Causes Leg Pain In A 5 Year Old?
My 5 year old daughter (approx. 40 lbs, average height) is complaining that her leg in the upper inner thigh area is hurting. There is no noticable redness or swelling. She is fairly athletic and still puts in a thorough effort when playing yet still complains of pain in that area a couple times each week. Any ideas?

Hi,
If she is athletic could be a muscular distension, she need to be seen with a doctor because probably she will need to take a break of the exercises and take some medications.
