Leg pain/spasms in child

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I wondered if you could give me advice, my daughter is 11 and has been

suffering with painful leg spasms which last for approx 1 week. She has had 3

episodes in the last 3 months and no painkillers seem to hit the pain.

Neuro docs have checked her out and can't find anything untoward - they

put it down to growing and posture and advised extra physio. Do you have any

suggestions?

To see her in so much pain is very distressing. I am in London and also looking

for a decent sandal to put her in for the summer - she is able to walk unaided

but just needs a supportive shoe and at her age this is not an easy task.

Thank you for your time
