What can I do for growing pains?

Ugh! Looking for some advice. My 2 year old daughter has been having growing pains on and off, but they generally last for about a week and then go away for about a month. They wake her up in the middle of the night and she’s always saying it’s her knees or lower legs. Is there anything you mama’s have tried that really helps? We do Tylenol on the nights where she wakes up, but I don’t want to give that to her too often either. I massage her legs gently and have tried heating pads. Nothing seems to help until she cries herself to sleep. I just feel so helpless. They have never bothered her during the day only at night. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
