I'm going to take him into the ER soon if it doesn't change but I really was hoping it was a Charlie horse that's just lasting forever, or that its still asleep... Anyone ever experienced this? Because our ER waits are loooooong here , don't matter if you're a toddler or not, you're waiting hours. Which I don't want to put him through if its a Charlie horse. Anyone?
AND if it IS a sprain, won't they just have us put ice on it ...
Quoting MrsRinehart2010:soounds like a chaarlie hourse , try massaging it. or a bannana.
I would say give it about 2 hours from the time it started an the go from there. (but i guess youve alredy done something since this post is from the yesterday lol)
Poor guy! I hope his pediatrician can get to the bottom of this. Good luck to you!
Quoting Mommy2justone:At that age, I would get it checked out.
could be growing pains. MY oldes gets them sooo bad that she cant walk an she falls when she trys to can they make her cry. nothing wrong with ehr jst simplygrowing pains. Shes been seen by the doctor about it aswell. try a warm bath an tylenol

If its a Charlie horse wouldn't it go away by now? It's been almost 48 hours and he's slowly starting to walk on it but still limping and falls over. And we did wait two hours from the time it happened to take him to urgent care but all the X-rays we had done came back perfectly normal so the doc said give it three days then go to his regular pedi. So I'm hoping it does go away cuz I can't imagine what the pedi is gonna do that the doc didnt already do.
