5 year old limping and bow in his lower leg

Hello all

We ended up at a and e a year ago due to my son having a limp and not walking well. He has dairy and soya allergies. He had bloods taken and all levels were ok. He was referred to orthopaedics, had several xrays on his hips and it was diagnosed as reactive arthritis due to allergy flare ups. We were told to give it a year and hopefully it will have fixed itself.

We are currently waiting for an appointment after being referred to orthopaedics again as there has been no improvement and if anything it's worse than a year ago. His right legs is bowed, he cannot put his heel to the ground on his right side and his foot turns sideways when walking ( toes turn in not rolling foot inwards)

Has anyone had any experience of this? I would upload a video of him walking if I could.
