Ds is nearly 4 and has a genetic condition which means he has learning disabilities and health issues.
He fell a couple of months ago, and has struggled to walk since - he has always been a very slow walker, with a 'swivelly' gait and struggles to walk any distance, but this reduced to practically no walking after the fall. When he did walk, he would limp, go up on one toe and kind of hitch his leg around.
After several hospital visits and talking to his physio, they finally agreed to xray his hips and discovered that he has a malformed hip - so the socket is too shallow, meaning the ball moves too much in the socket, and the orthopaedic cons thought he must have had a partial subluxation, which has slipped back in. His walking is starting to improve now.
Because of his low tone, I think he is more prone to damage when he falls.
Does anyone have any experience of this? I am speaking to his physio tomorrow, are there any questions I should be asking?
