Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,
Welcome at HCM.

I am more concerned about these symptoms of your daughter.There can be some infection at back or a generalized condition like viral infection which is leading to these symptoms.

Presence of bruises can be due immune reaction caused by infection from viruses.

I will advice you to consult to your paediatric doctor & get her evaluated by having blood examination & x rays.

Hope this will help you.

With best wishes.
