Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me with this - my DD (9) has been complaining about painful ankles on and off for a good 6 months now. I thought in could be growing pains as my other DD gets growing pains and they are both very tall. Today she came home from school limping saying the pain in both ankles was really bad. She did alot of running and skipping today and is generally very active.
I have done a quick internet search and flat foot is a suggestion. Her ankles are not swollen, hot or red so I don't think it's inflammatory. DH has flat foot and has needed shoe inserts in the past. I think I will take her to the GP but was wondering if anyone else had any thoughts?
