Hi Viking,

infections cause pain and swelling,
problems with lymphatic system also cause swelling. (thats the system that drains excess fluid from your tissues and puts it back in your circulatory system).
As much as you probably don't want to, its probably time to go see a doctor.

good luck

Just growing pains.. don't worry about it... if it persists see a doctor in a couple of weeks.

See your doctor, swollen legs could indicate a heart problem
Or Lymphodema which is what I get my legs go bright red and swell so bad the shins hurt
Or could be just fluid retention.
In any case you do need to get it looked at
