It could be and couldn't depending on the symptoms ,there are clues for telling it is a growth pain or not look at these :
Growing pains are often described as an ache or throb in the legs ,often in the front of the thighs, the calves or behind the knees. Growing pains tend to affect both legs and occur at night, and may even wake a child from sleep.
Note that the growth spurt in girls is at age of3-7 and or 8- 13 years of old however this could be variable from child to child
Although these pains are called growing pains, there's no evidence that growth hurts. Growing pains may be linked to a lowered pain threshold or, in some cases, to psychological issues.
There's no specific treatment for growing pains. You can make your child more comfortable by putting a warm heating pad on the sore muscles and massaging them.
Some children may also experience abdominal pain or headache during episodes of growing pains. The pain doesn't occur every day. It comes and goes.
if the pain in the joints felt to be or your child's leg pain or the pain is:
-Persistent
-Still present in the morning
-Severe enough to interfere with your child's normal activities
-Located in the joints
-Associated with an injury
-Accompanied by other signs or symptoms, such as swelling, redness, tenderness, fever, limping, rash, loss of appetite, weakness or fatigue
>>then this pain is not a growing pain and there is another cause for her pain
Simple other causes might be and also might be linked to growing pain :
-Muscle pain at night from overuse during the day is thought to be the most likely cause of growing pains. Overuse from activities such as running, climbing and jumping can be hard on a child's musculoskeletal system.
If a child wakes up in the morning with leg pains -- then feels relief after moving around -- it may be juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA),symptoms joint pain, joint swelling, and joint stiffness early in the disease.
Most children have good and bad days.70% to 90% of them) will recover without any serious disabilities. But some symptoms can continue into adulthood, such as stiffness, pain, limits on physical activity, and chronic arthritis
The treatment should involve anti-inflammatory medications and working on regaining lost range of motion
if she feel those symptoms in the joints and muscles as mentioned above you must seek a rheumatologist for further investigations and proper diagnosis and further treatment
