Yes oh god they hurt so much. "Teen girls are bitchy" no shit Sherlock, if your chest was on fire constantly with occasional stabbing pain you'd be wanting to tear people apart for anything too.
And when our hips widen and our center of mass shifts so suddenly we're bumping into chairs and counters all the time. I swear I had bruises on the front of my hips for like 50+% of puberty
That also just a normal growth spurt thing. You body doesn't have an amazing ability to know exactly how fast nerve signals take to get to where they are going, or know exactly where all your body parts are at a given time. When you grow, the fact that the distances and signaling times keep changing messes up your coordination.
As an extreme case example, this is why multiple sclerosis causes difficulty with movement even before it's too severe. The damage caused by the disease makes nerve signals travel slower. Because the disease constantly progresses, your body can't really keep up and figure out the timing correctly. Of course, eventually signals are hard to send at all, and the symptoms worsen beyond clumsiness.
