4 year old son suddenly began to walk like a cripple

My son is 4 year old and 2 days ago, he suddenly started to walk like a cripple, he has not been injured in any situation and there is no complaints of pain, went to doc this morning, and did not see anything irregular and was told to keep watching him for 3 or 4 weeks.I am just very worried why he suddenly walked like that? I am very upset, anyone can give me any help on this or information? God bless all of kids!!!

As you have had him checked out at your Doctors ,could he be seking attention from you , have there been any new happenings in his life could have upset him, new siblings new school, a move to a new house or area, loss of any Family member. Check out anything you can think of, and talk to him ask how he is feeling,then take a step back, ignore it and act as if he doesnt do it, it may go away ,but if you are reacting and he gets attention from it ,it may continue.
