Growing pains...?!


Question: Growing pains!.!.!.!?
What are they!? What makes them!? Are they inflamation!? If I take pain killers do I keep growing!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
There is actually no evidence to support growing pains!. It's a term attributed to the lengthening of bones, but as I mentioned no evidence exists that our bones hurt when they grow!. Seeing as most people aren't sure what causes them, whenever there is any time of pain you have to assume that there is inflammation!. Certainly you can take Ibuprofen which is an anti-inflammatory (with parents permission) and yes you'll continue to grow :)
