A member asked:

My daughter hurt her knee (running) now walking her foot turns blue leg gets ice cold unless we elevate it for a while. knee was hurting but feels mostly better now. just the above symptoms when she walks. dr. said come back if continues?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This is worrisome. It suggests that the muscles deep in the leg are swelling to the point they cut down blood flow to the leg/foot. I would have her seen by a sports medicine doc or orthopedic surgeon. If it happens again & she is in pain take her to the ER during the event & ask them to arrange for ortho to see her.
