If the child is having a balanced diet no need to add any protein powder. Leg pains are due to deficiency of magnesium or iron so try to add iron rich foods and some nuts in her diet. For any further queries you can consult on practo.

You should go for a personal consultation and not follow any universal advice for her as every body is different and advice should be taken specific to her health.
