So when i was younger i would get these really bad growing pains in my legs.

Went to the doctor - and they said it was "growing pains" its when the bone grows faster then the muscle so it ends up hurting really bad.

Ok so this is in my younger years of life - and when i was a teenager i still got them but i knew a cure - a nice warm bath - super hot would take them away.

Well i am now in college and i STILL get them

Has anyone had these before?

I am guessing it was never "growing pains" but i think its RLS

(restless leg syndrome)

anyone?

Yea when I was a kid, (I think 7th and 8th grade) I had really bad growing pains in my knees. When ever I would kneel on them it was excruciatingly painful. After the end of 8th/early 9th it practically went away. The doctor says it's was the growth plates in my legs, it was a very complicated reason to which I dont remember anymore. He said they would go away when I grew into my "growth plates" which it did. Also about the restless leg syndrome, WTF? Yes I do shake my leg but my dad always mentioned that I had it. wouldn't restless leg syndrome be uncontrollable or somin? I never could understand it and thought it was very annoying.

Ok I can confirm for sure that I do NOT have it. I looked it up and I have never come close to it's symptoms except liking to move my legs. (Not too much...) Ever consider creating a poll????
