legs hurt!!!!

My 14 year old daughter is suffering from alergies (allergies) and she seems to be complaining of her legs hurting, My other two children have suffered from this same thing when they were younger and i wanted to know if this has anything to do with alergies (allergies)?

It's probably just growing pains.

It probably wouldn't hurt to give her a multivitamin with minerals, including vitamin D, calcium, magnesium.

My children who have severe allergies had similar issues.  It may be a good idea to have her checked by her pediatrician because sometimes those with immune issues also can have temporary issues with inflammation elsewhere and during times of allergy it can get worse.  Your Dr will probably run some blood tests to rule out anything going on.

Hello and hope you are doing well.

It could be unrelated to allergies. Looks more like your daughter could  be experiencing growing pains, which are common in children and tend to affect the muscles. More serious disorders tend to affect the joints and are painful when handled.  For relief you could give her OTC acetaminophen. Try massaging, heat pads and stretching .If the pains are worsening, there is no relief with pain killers or if there is fever or if the joints become swollen and painful please consult your primary care physician.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
