Don't want to be that poster but is this an a and e job?

She's fallen and her legs all swollen. She's weight baring but she's limping and she's crying intermittently.

Yes but our Minor Injuries isn't 24 hours, and you can only have an xray between 9am and 5pm. So sometimes you need a&e. And many areas only have a&e.

Glad it's not broken but still sounds painful. Thank you for the update.

Unfortunately with things like this the only way to know if it is a break is worth an x-ray. I have had a badly sprained ankle that put me only crutches for 6 weeks where the nurse said "let's pop you to x-ray to see which bone is broken" and my sister broke her leg and a &e only did the x-ray just to make sure it wasn't a break as they were fairly sure it was soft tissue only. She was mobile a lot quicker than I was!
Plenty of rest and cuddles are needed x

I would caveat all of this with we have a tendency to think of a break as worse but DS leg fracture and DD torn foot ligaments actually took a similar time to heal. His green stick wrist fracture was actually the quickest.

it’s painful and takes time to heal

How is she doing now @sugaryouth1?
