Painless limp

28 replies

My three year old is limping. It's quite severe in the mornings and gets slightly better throughout the day. He had irritable hip a year ago and since then he has this persistent painless limp that comes and goes. They xrayed his hip a year ago and that's how they diagnosed irritable hip. Since then I've taken him back to the GP 10 times for his limp. I've showed them videos. Once I was told irritable hip again, then I was told soft tissue damage then I was told i needed to teach my child how to walk better. I see the orphapedics in November. I'm really hoping they see what I see and at least offer an X-ray of his leg. This morning his limping was so bad I took him to the GP who said it's not an emergency and wait to see the orphapedic team in November. Anyone have any ideas what it could potentially be?

Hi! It turned out he had Kohlers disease in his foot which caused the limp. 😫
