Toddler spiral leg fracture

[idiot55]

Anyone any experience of this, just had 4 year old and A and Eafter hurting her leg on trampoline yesterday turns out to be this.

seems v painful but they say no cast, should heal on its own.

anyone know how long take to improve so she can weight bear and get less painful?

Sorry no advice - just wanted to say hope she feels better soon!

How is your DD now? DS hurt his leg on the trampoline today and was limping quite badly for the rest of the day and his weight went under him twice when he tried to run. he wasnt in any pain though? Am planning on seeing how it is in the morning then, if he is still limping will take him to the doctors.

Hmm my sister had a spiral fracture age 6 and needed cast for 6 weeks then for another 6 weeks after and she has a weakened leg now as an adult

dh had a very nasty spiral fracture of his arm. the first week they said no cast but then it was splinted and in a cast for seven weeks after that.

Hi my LO landed awkwardly on the trampoline Sunday night at 5ish. A few tears when it happened but ok afterwards apart from not wanting to put weight on his leg so we thought best be sure .... Turned out he had a slight spiral fracture just below his knee and is now in a cast :( Never had anything like this happen to anyone I know but he does not seem to be in pain just annoyed at not being able to do much
