That is quite possible I as a child had problems with my leg at around age 7 onwards it eventually went away, however we should have checked for Arthritis at the time as this would quite likely have saved me a lot of problems later on in life as I was eventually diagnosed with Rheumatoid arthritis which caused major damage to many of my joints. Check on it in order to avoid situations where joint replacement is the only treatment .
