Suggest Treatment For Limping Right Foot
I have a 1 yo male patient who came in due to limping of right foot for 1 day duration. No other symptoms. No trauma. PE: patient would limp when walking but no swelling nor tenderness. Xray lower extremities and pelvis were normal. Cleared from ortho. What could this be? thanks

Hello,
It may be due to muscle sprain.
For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.
In case of swelling you may require X Ray foot after orthopedician consultation.
Avoid direct pressure on that foot.
Use support while walking
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
