    This document discusses signs of inflammation and criteria for growing pains. It lists common signs of inflammation as pain, erythema, edema, heat, and loss of function. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxin sodium can help reduce these signs but have potential side effects. Corticosteroids are also anti-inflammatory drugs but have more severe side effects. Paracetamol is only an analgesic and antipyretic, not an anti-inflammatory.
