Patient's question:
The baby fell backward while riding a skateboard and hit the back of his head. After that, he walked with a limp. X-rays from the foot to the leg showed no issues, and he was in good spirits. There was no pain when the leg and foot were pressed. It has been 8 days now, and he is still walking with a limp. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
According to your description of the condition. This situation should not pose any major problems. It is also possible that it is related to joint synovitis. Excessive walking and exertion in daily life can also lead to such symptoms. However, there were no symptoms before the injury. This time, the injury caused it. It is recommended that you do not let the child walk for now. Carry her for a few days, minimize movement as much as possible, and it should provide relief. If there is no improvement after a few days, you can go back to the hospital for a follow-up visit and reexamination. Wishing the child a speedy recovery.
