Ds3 who is seven spent the weekend camping with Beavers.
He's come home with a limp after twisting his ankle yesterday. He can walk but finds it painful to weight bear and occasionally it makes him cry out especially if he twists it while turning etc.
The pain is above his ankle in his lower shin.
Dr Google seems to suggest a 'high ankle sprain'

When he broke his wrist a couple of years ago he was still using it, it was only the fact he woke in the night asking for calpol (which he hates) that made me get it checked. Bad mummy!

I honestly don't think it's broken but then again I was fairly convinced his arm wasn't.

WWYD?
