Hi all!

Has anyone's child suffered a sprained ankle and refused to put weight on it? How long did it take for recovery?

My son 2.5 slipped on a toy at child care abs went over on his ankle. We took him to a&e for an X-ray which came back clear but he won't put weight on it yet. It's been 2 days!

He's happy in insert and crawling around and pulling himself up on things but not walking Sad

Thank you!

I would say that’s unusual and would be seeking further medical help from the gp. Is there much swelling/bruising to indicate a big soft tissue injury?
