1 year old is complaining of his thighs hurting what is causing this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Time to go to doc: Leg pain in an infant or toddler can be a very serious thing. Without more info, I'd say you need to call your doctor right away (or go to the ER) and get it checked out, especially if there is any pain with movement of knee or hip, redness/swelling, refusal to walk or limping (if walking) or ANY systemic symptoms like rapid weight gain/loss, poor appetite, looking/feeling ill, paleness, or FEVER.
