Let me explain: We have to be sure she have no problems by taking her to orthopedic surgeon. If he did not find anything we could label that what they call growing pain. Doctors don't know exactly what causes growing pains, but they may be linked to a lowered pain threshold or, in some cases, to psychological issues.
