I can add a point to the fatigue theory, i had a very growing pain-like sensation in my arm not too long ago after wiping something for a few hours (constant back and forth motions). It was really weird feeling the growing pain in my arm which i don t think i ve ever felt but as children i think we use our legs more than our arms so that makes sense

Institute of Human Anatomy is it possible that the pain is from muscles being stretched so far by growing bones that they tear a little and have to be repaired? I know when muscles are used rigorously in workouts or in things not normally done, the muscles get sore when being repaired.

Just as a point of interest, my brother was told he had 'growing pains' when he was young. He saw several doctors over a period of years and was always brushed off despite being in severe pain. He was a accused on different occasions as faking it, being uncooperative etc. It wasn't until years later (in his early teens iirc) that a nurse said "that sounds like CFS" - parents brought it up with his doctor, leading to a 'huh, there's a thought' response. Some time later he was officially diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome. I can't help but wonder how often this happens.

As mentioned by others, cancer is probably the most common reason to have the entire stomach removed, but typically for any reason doctors try to only remove as little as possible. For instance in weight loss surgery, they remove all but a little bit that they turn into a tiny change purse sized stomach. They do this precisely to maintain some of the function including causing hunger. Hunger is not just one process, it is many processes that the brain has learned to interpret as hunger. One of the biggest problems people in western countries have with food is we train our brains to interpret thirst, as hunger. This causes us to eat when we are thirsty. One process that we interpret as hunger is when our stomach is "growling". This is caused by a multiple forms of stimulation that our body uses to anticipate a meal. Smell, taste, and actual protein and fat in our stomach releases hormones that tell the intestines that food is on the way. This causes the muscular contraction of the intestines and release of enzymes to break down food. If your stomach is empty when this happens gas in the intestines, and swallowed air in the stomach make that growling sound as the intestines move around more. There is also a hormone balance based on blood sugar levels, and insulin, and body fat that try and interpret your body's energy stores. When your blood sugar is low, when fat cells are dumping fats back into your bloodstream to be used as energy your body releases hormones that tell your brain you are in a low energy state and that you are hungry. Most digestion happens in your intestines. The stomach does 2 things primarily, it uses acid and muscles to mix the food to break it into smaller pieces, there is an enzyme called pepsin that works in the stomach as well to break down proteins, and the stomach stores the food and releases it into the intestines in small measured amounts. So if you lose your stomach you have to replace this process, which means food and proteins need to broken down ahead of time often using small simple proteins/amino acids. And you have to slow the imput of food down since you can't store it.

I suffered so bad from growing pains, mostly in my lower legs, as soon as someone mentions it! Oh the pain was horrible 😢 Our doctor theorised that the bones were growing faster than the muscles, causing the pain because of the stretching, he prescribed leg massage and paracetamol, the pressure of the leg massage from the ankle to the back of the knee helped so much until eased, I can still remember feeling my mum rub my leg muscles until I fell asleep 😢

My 7-yr-old daughter complains a lot about pain behind the knee when I'm putting her to bed. I rub it for a few minutes, but I thought it was REALLY just a way to keep me in the room (especially because it's usually behind one knee one night, and the other knee the next). Now, I realize that it hurts EXACTLY where Justin says it would; I'm going to take it more seriously now.

Even after pushing my body to its limits in adulthood, I would not experience the same type of pain that would almost leave me in tears as a child. There’s definitely something going on.

I've had the so called "growing pains" since I was around 8 or 9 and have continued having them throughout my adult life. I am now 64. Mine feels like deep bone pain and are always located in the large bones of my body such as the upper arm and lower arm, femur and tibia. The pain is an intense stabbing pain that makes me stop whatever I am doing. Sometimes, it happens when I'm not doing anything. The Doctors told my parents when I was a child that I would "grow" out of it but that was just not true. I feel for the people that have this type of pain as it is no joke.

@evelynarredondo7343

4 жыл бұрын

Natalia straw berries Hi! I’m no doctor but I have taken years of health classes and was actually a human dissection student at one point! But shin splints, actually called Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (MTSS), is where you overuse the muscles along your shin bone aka the tibia. This can be caused by quite a few reasons but most commonly found in people who have flat feet, have high arches, or simply overpronate (they step using the outsides of their foot first then rolling their foot in). In some cases, people have shin splints due to their calf muscles (the muscles on your lower leg) are too tense and don’t allow your foot to fully point down when walking, running, etc. As you can see, if you have bad foot mechanics or simply born with flat feet or bad arches, this causes problems when doing activities such as running. It’s important for people with flat feet and bad arches to find the right foot support for them. P.s i was also an athletic training student. To make the pain slowly go away try stretching your muscles frequently. Simply by pointing your toe down as much as you can and repeating. And/or take a cube of ice (preferably a large one) and scrape along that muscle. It will be PAINFUL but after a while you’ll go numb and feel a lot better afterwards!

@Uhlbelk

4 жыл бұрын

When you run (especially down hill) your muscle in the front of your leg (tibialis anterior) acts as a shock absorber for your foot. It holds the front of your foot up, so when you step, the foot doesn't slap into the ground, but rocks onto the toes. As you can imagine, going downhill the distance your toes have to be gently lowered is much greater than on a flat surface or going uphill. BUT going uphill that muscle has to pull your toes up higher to make sure they don't hit the ground first. You can feel your anterior leg muscle as you flex your foot toward your head and as you press your heel down onto a surface. This muscle is attached to your foot obviously, and it follows the shin bone along the outside and up to your outer knee bone. The muscle is attached with tendons at the ends, but the muscle has a tough sheath of tissue around it that holds it in place to that shin bone. Bones have a very sensitive covering called the periosteum, this muscular attachment to the shinbone connects to the periosteum from the outer knee about 2/3s of the way to your foot. When you run and your body is not used to the full range of motion and strength of flex that muscle can exert it causes tears between the muscle and tendon and in the case of this particular muscle, that attachment it has to the shinbone causing a lot of pain from the damage to that periosteum.

I had terrible growing pains until I was about 19. I believe they started around age 8, when puberty started. I’d be in tears nearly each night. I was lucky at the time to have a doctor that believed growing pains were a thing; a lot of doctors still don’t. I can say for certain it wasn’t psychological. It also wasn’t overuse of the body. I think most people that suffered from growing pains would tell you the same thing.

I've started lifting and arm wrestling lately and i've been feeling the same dull aching pulsating pain that i used to feel as a kid except in my arms. This topic is absolutely fascinating, I wonder if bone density increasing could have something to do with it? I'm roughly 4-5months into Armwrestling training and the weird stresses of it are known to cause a lot of adaptations in the arm tendons and perhaps even in the bone. If it is somehow linked to bone density i find it absolutely INSANE that i could potentially be 'feeling' my bone density increase. My growing pains were never TOO painful, they were dull, and i even kind of liked them weirdly enough. Going back to this video i just wish there was more on this topic and we knew more. thank you for the wonderful content!

To this day I have been told that the tendons at major joints including elbows, knees and heels (Achilles) are very hard, thick and tight. I always find it a great relief to be massaged at those joints. To me, growing pains were very real and I think I still live with the effects as an adult.

I visited a real bodies exhibition, which was utterly fascinating. Though the bodies were removed of most of their skin, parts were left intact such as the eyebrows, and most of the “private” areas. I do have photos of some of the specimens

I got some pains in adult life, at ~30 years old, that brought a strong memory of growing pains. I had finally started lifting heavier, with a barbell, after a period of getting in better physical shape. As I got stronger, my left leg that was a bit off, some joint angles and such, started aching occasionally. It was exactly as you described, but only on left leg. Throbbing pain in quad at night. I thought it was the muscles starting to balance out (some calf, quad, hamstring, glute and hip balancing muscle weaknesses/imbalances) and bones changing joint angles for the muscles growing. I don't know if that's the case, but it made sense to me for what I had going on before, what I was doing and what I was feeling. So I wondered if growing pains a as a kid can be joint angles changing due to bones and muscles growing. Things stretching etc. I also had a decently intense period of training - lowered load but increased volume, and I was experiencing a lot of effects from that as a result, mainly great growth in leg muscles, but also improving ankle mobility, foot shape (from curled together to flatter) and balancing skills on single leg that were almost non-existent and revealed great weakness/controll issues in stability. At least I've understood that it's common for people who have variety in body measures and strengths to have the joint angles change due to training and "fixing" things. Knee being one of the most common parts that has issues with people who lift for various balance/control/strength reasons. And muscle attachment angles change due to muscle growth, which ironically causes a less advantageous position, but since the grown muscle is stronger, it's a net positive (size demands space of course). Of course I don't think I solved growing pains on scientifical level and that my thought is a satisfying explanation, just a small part of it, perhaps more of a shower thought.

I remember growing pains. They were so unique feeling. It was this slight aching feeling in both of my femur bones. It happened rarely, but often enough that I knew exactly what it was

I had horrible " growing pains " when I was younger. Normally it was after a day of a lot of walking or physical activity and it would always strike at night. I'd be up for hours and my Mom would have to rub my legs until I fell asleep because it hurt so bad. Nothing ever helped the pain.

The human body is just fascinating

I watched a video with a neurologist who said it’s caused by a vitamin D deficiency. I had horrible leg pains as a child. According to her, it is also associated with bed-wetting. Fortunately I grew out of the bed-wetting. Still have leg pains.

Thnx for telling me Why cause ive ben having them for the past 6 years straight everyday

I sure wish doctors would move away from saying things are all in your head, especially when they’re trying to save face because they can’t figure out the root issue. Pride should never come before practice.

Eyes and brain are literally in your head.

I always felt like growing pains were alot like how you feel after a good intense workout. The muscles and the bones ache from the proteins repairing and building muscles, and in the instance of growing, calcium for bones.

I was thinking along the lines of the bones are growing longer which means the muscles are being stretched and possibly torn a bit, causing the need for repair which would cause that sort of achy pain like after a workout. 🙂

At least for me it was very different. After work out or Taekwondo, that pain has a fuzzy warmth to it. The best way I can describe growing pains, at least what I was told as as a kid, I try to seperate from joint pain I have for Ehlers Danlos. But if you injure your leg and then stop exercising while it heals, that cramp that feels like your muscles are pulling in. That's more what it feels like. But it tends to be individual. My family is pretty known for having growing pains in the back lol.

My brother is 190cm and my father is 187cm and my uncle is 215cm all of my family are tall from 180cm and above so can i growing taller to be 190cm or 195cm ?

When I was young my doctor told me that growing pains were like callused feet versus un-callused hands. Children supposedly get them because their muscles are more tender and sensitive. He compared it like a person with callused feet being able to run over rocks with no issue while someone with un-callused feet would be in extremely bad pain. I guess his idea was that children’s muscles were like un-callused feet in the sense of being “weaker”, more tender, and the growing pains were the result of that? He explained it by co paring them to the for,action of calluses and said it was just the muscles getting stronger and more resilient. Even at thirteen this sounded like a cop out answer and didn’t truly satisfy me in answering the question.

Both my sons had growing pains. One had them in his knees and calves. The other hand them in his feet

My growing pains would only hurt at the bones of my calves, in the frontal part not on the back...

Since it is homeopathic and not actually a pain killer the relief wasn't immediate but more of a slow improvement over time.

Do the cadaver joints flex at all, or are they all rigid?

@theanatomylab

4 жыл бұрын

The joint are pretty rigid in the beginning, but as you remove more and more tissue, such as the skin and fascia, the joints become more mobile.

In my family, 4 generations of male and female, fairly tall people, we experienced these pains during periods of rapid growth. My son, at age 15 and again at 17, had growth spurts where he was growing at an inch a month. I have the technologically definitive proof of this growth, marks on the kitchen door frame, dates of measurements included. Very scientific. However, during these three to five month periods of growth he had some pretty bad nights because his thigh bones, femor, ached and thronged. As soon as his growth slowed the pain stopped. I had the same, my mother and so on. I'm no scientist but it felt to me like my growth was somehow out of sinc. Like my femor was just cranking out new bone and my muscles and tendons were slow to elongate. Anyway, in my family the pain occurred in mid to late puberty.

I absolutely LOVE your channel! I am in my last semester before nursing school starts. Getting my RN/BSN and I would absolutely love to see more videos on the muscle groups of the body! The way you explain the muscles has helped me so much in being able to memorize and actually know which muscles are what since there are so many and some are covered up by other muscles. So if you can I’d love to see each area if the body and their muscle groups and functions!

I truly believe in growing pains. When my daughter was about 3, she complained about her arms and legs hurt at bedtime for about 2 months. She grew so quickly it couldn't have been anything else. Since the pain wasn't every night, it was easily cured by a dram of Motrin. She also grew 8-10 inches in about 3 months! She had always been in the top 90 per cent for height until she was about 10 years old.

You guys are killing it for only uploading for a month or so.. keep up the good work this channel is gonna grow!! Ps. I've thought about doing videos of something that I love but never thought people would watch. Great job for going for it and finding a solid crowd!

I remember getting those in my knees, as a child, until about age 10. Sometimes it was absolutely awful, other times it was bearable. Definitely at night, always at night, no sleeping with that. It's a high intensity, aching pain that makes you want to writhe and roll around.

I still get these, not as often as I did when I was younger but when I do get them it is AGONY. I'm almost 18 and have a few vitamin deficiencies, fairly active but I don't overdo it. Had them very bad as a child too, had me up all night.

I don't know if stretch marks hurt, but that is damage from growing. Working out is growing muscles and that hurts (you kinda addressed that with kids playing, but avoided it with the "growing longer" vs stronger /bulkier)

I really do think that growing pains are caused by the hips. I’m 18 and I still get growing pains. I have noticed that if I adjust my posture while laying down to support my hips, the pain becomes less intense. Also I have realized that the most intense growing pains comes after I have been waking around all day (like going to an amusement park kind of walking around all day) so physical activity is probably the main cause

Therese Lloyd If you know when they are likely to happen and what posture change causes them it’s not growing pains.

I have an idea that goes hand in hand with the fatigue version. Your body is getting used to more stress so what it's doing is strengthening the muscles. I'm thinking this because I have to walk 2.53 miles to school most days and one day I walked faster than normal and my muscles had fatigued

There is a theory that growing pains is actually a manifestation of symptoms of Ehlers-Danlos hypermobility. It would be great if you would do a video on EDS collegan mutations, which can affect the whole body.

I got these so badly I still remember them at age 4 or so...my parents took me to the hospital. The medicine given in 1966 was Bayer's Children's Aspirin-Orange flavor🍊 .

I'm a grown adult and I still get "growing pains" the very same pain I got as a child. Now that I am an adult I realize it was always shins splint pain

I suffered with these to the point when i got outta bed in the morning i hat to walk on my tip toes😅 when my calves and legs warmed up i can lower my feet on the ground and walk regular! My sibs u to be like, "why the heck u walking on yo toes?" That crap hurts REAL BAD! I was one of the shortest in my family until 9th grade! Im a 6'3" man now😃

When I was a kid I would sit in the bathtub and pretty much cry for a couple hours. The pain was freaking awful in my legs and my stepmom would tell me they were growing pains.

Hyper-awarness when going to sleep is pretty common. It happens with pain, anxiety, depression. When your brain has nothing else to focus on except your own body. Rapid growth and childhood exuberance puts a lot of strain on muscle and bone and bone pain from joints and growth plates can get referred to the major muscle groups in those areas.

I often wonder if growing pains can possibly be related to Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, hypermobility type. I would love to see a video about hEDS as well as Chiari Malformation.

Please look up Ehlers- Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and growing pains. I say the pains are secondary to micro tears and low grade inflammation in the various connective tissues due to certain weak collagen subtypes found in EDS. This would involve bones, ligaments and fascia.

I have never experienced growing pains, probably because I am nearly 5 foot tall so I do not have first hand experience of the symptoms. However, the pain may be caused by muscle, bone and tendons growing at a different rate or speeds. Fascinating subject, thanks for posting!

i think i have it but i don’t know for sure, but it’s the most sound thing that matches what i think it is, but; i know that putting pressure on my leg - calf, thigh or knee to cut blood flow makes it better.. i would have one of my siblings sit on my leg(i’m under a blanket and they sit on my leg - the cold makes it worse but warmth helps) and their weight puts pressure on my leg, so it cuts blood flow for a few minutes. after a few minutes, i tell them to get off and the blood rushes back, cause pins and needles which aren’t uncomfortable actually but feels kinda good and then i tell them to sit again in the same or different spot on my leg and redo until it feels better and it actually helps. i don’t know if it’s my muscles or nerves or bones but cutting blood flow helps me deal with the pain when it hurts. it’s like an ache in my leg or something, like sometimes it feels like it in my bones. my legs aches so much that it hurts. cutting blood flow/putting pressure helps. my siblings use to massage and hit my leg to help it but i found just them sitting on it to stop blood flow helped better. i wonder if anyone has done this, relate to it or if u can try it and leave feedback if this helped you? i’m 19 rn and still experience it now, had it ever since i was young and i think my mom also has it, we use to massage and hit my moms legs for her too but iono when i was in elementary school, like in 3rd grade, i had it happen during school and my leg hurted/ached so i went to the nurse and lied down for a bit and the nurse didn’t do anything so i started hitting my leg cause that’s what always made it better and go away. ofc the nurse knew i came to her about my leg hurting and told me to stop hitting it. she didn’t do anything and couldn’t.. at this point of my life the pain was BAD compared to it now. i would cry when it hurted/ached. so i cried. annnnd got sent to the counselor.... 💀 i cried cause it was still aching, the counselor gave me paper outlines to colore and then it started to stop hurting and i went back to class.... no one can relate to my legs aching and hurting and no one understands it..
