Growing pains relief for kids

Hey friends. I always had bad bad growing pains in my shins as a kid, and now my poor kid has them too. Now I know that growing pains are NOT normal and related to our hypermobility, but there's also not a lot of information on relief. I asked his doctor and all I really got was give him magnesium, acetaminophen for the pain, and a weighted blanket will help. We do all these things, but he still complains of them about once a week. Pain meds do help, but is there really nothing else to do for them?
