This type of pains can be due to vitamin D and calcium deficiency or due to arthritis such as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. I would recommend you to go for a proper clinical examination by orthopedic surgeon. He may advice for X Ray of involved joints, complete blood count, ESR, CRP, ANA, RA factor, 25OH D3, and calcium levels. You may upload the reports for my reference as well. This will help me to guide you in the best possible way.Take care
