Hi, weakness in hand and legs could suggest a serious condition. Sudden onset of symptoms in a child requires complete neurological examination and neuro-imaging in form of a CECT head and a CPK level done. consult a pediatrician or a neurologist asap and get a CECT head done. He might have to be worked up for Congenital Myopathies and Muscle dystrophies. Thanks and regards.
