DC Limping really worried

Dc age 3 has been limping for 10 days now. Went to a&e but as they were weight baring they said its ok but come back if worsens over 2/3
3 days later it was much worse, so returned, dc isn't saying there's pain but its very prominent and foot now going inwards
They did xrays of knees hips lower leg ankle and foot. All were ok.
They did blood tests for infection all OK.
So sent home with outpatients appointment.
Have the orthopedic outpatients appointment on Monday but im getting so worried.
The limp is still there, foot going inwards but when wearing shoes its very prominent and goes in more.

Otherwise a healthy active dc

Have you checked feet? I noticed ds was limping and turned out it was a verruca I'd not spotted

Most likely to be transient synovitis (irritable hip) which is self limiting

They would have been ruling out the more dangerous septic arthritis with the X-ray

Yeah feet all checked.

How is iratable hip diagnosed
