He still falls while walking and limps.He cant run or walk for extended periods of time. and screams at night out of dead sleep in leg pain his leg also appears to be bowing out. please any tips or advice /insight is appreciated thankyou
Spring and summer are where trampoline injuries peak,37% of injuries are children under 6 years old ,83% occur when there is more than one child on the trampoline.It sounds like a sprain to the knee ligaments and may take a few weeks. I think it may depend on whether its torn or stretched 2-6 weeks healing time .I think a visit to the Doctor is in order ..Let us know how he is doing good luck Beau
You need to have him seen by an orthopedist. In the meantime, he should wear a full knee brace to avoid re-injuring the joint.
