Ep. 64: “Growing Pains” - Common Problem or Orthopedic Emergency? - with Jacob Schulz, MD

Does your child complain about pain in their arms, legs or back? How do you know when you can ignore your child’s pain and when you should see a doctor? Orthopedic surgeon Jacob Schulz, MD from Montefiore Children’s Hospital explains why you should look at your teenager in their bathing suit, when to be concerned about knee pain, uneven shoulders and hips and other orthopedic issues. Kids and teens are still growing so their pain has a very different meaning compared to adults. Is your teenager complaining or is there something you need to address?    Visit Jacob Schulz, MD at Montefiore Children’s Hospital    Send your questions to [email protected] or submit at drwendyhunter.com  Find products from the show on the shop page.   *As an Amazon Associate, I earn commission from qualifying purchases.    More from The Pediatrician Next Door:    Website: drwendyhunter.com   Instagram: @the_pediatrician_next_door  Facebook: facebook.com/wendy.l.hunter.75  TikTok: @drwendyhunter  LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/drwendyhunter    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.
