Suggest Treatment For Pain And Soreness In Knee
My four year old son is limping and telling me his knee hurts. It looks swollen. Should I have him checked or just give him motrin?He did jump off our pellet stove on monday and I thought it was his foot at first he didn t start limping until the next day. No I do not let my kids jump off stuff :)

Hello. I just read through your question.
The day after and incident is typically when the pain is worst. After that, it should improve little by little each day. If it does, we can leave it alone. If not, I recommend consulting with your doctor.
