A member asked:

Child complains for a second day that a calf on one leg hurts and now also an ankle, limping for 2 days no swelling, redness and not hot. what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

SIMPLE TO SERIOUS: Does the child feel sick? Fever? Calf bigger than other side? It could be something as simple as a muscle strain/sprain, to an infection, leg fracture, or something very serious but also very rare in children; a DVT. This should be checked by a pediatrician.
