Recently, my child often complains of leg pain at night while sleeping. Many people say this is due to growth in height. So, what are the signs of growing taller?

Signs of growing taller may include muscle and joint pain or discomfort from cramps, which tend to occur more frequently at night, primarily due to the vigorous secretion of growth hormone during this stage. Additionally, one might experience increased appetite, frequent hunger, and excessive sleepiness. Furthermore, rapid growth of hands and feet may also occur.
