What Causes Tiredness With Painfull Arms & Legs In Children?
Hi my 6 yr old son is complaining of tiredness along with feeling of not being able to move his arms & legs. Says he has felt these symptoms before while playing out at school and before bedtime. He has recently had a bad ear infection & has just finished a course of antibiotics. Should I ask for any blood tests at GP??

to be on the safe side you can do a complete blood count to rule out anemia.....he may need multivitamins and minerals...Syp Vidaylin 1 tsf a day for two months would be sufficient...
