Growing pains: Likely due to "growing pains" although growth isn't really painful. These leg pains are a throbbing dull pain often in the front of thighs , calves or behind the knees. These pains tend to happen at night and can wake a child from sleep. Pains can be relieved by massage and or a warm heating pad.
