Mothers of Children with Crohns Community Group
This group is for Moms who have kids with Crohn's disease. Hopefully we can help support each other.
Hello to you all
My son has been off steriods now for over a year, and i think he is beginning to hit puberty. He has been complaining of "growing pains" in his knees, I was wondering if any of you had experienced this with your children and whether the pain is worse for children with IBD?
Many Thanks
Alex

I just wondered if the pain in your childs knees was growing pains or was it connected with the crohns, as my son started getting cramps in his knees too but the doctors say this has nothing to do with the crohns?

sorry that I am just seeing this - yes, this is a common symptom. not sure if due to crohn's or to treatment of it...but yes.
