Hi, my daughter is 7 years. She had caugh,cold 2weeks before. But yesterday she said leg pain. And it was very painful. She couldn't even stand or walk. And crying a lot. Why is this. Will she back to normal? I have a new born baby too. Will he get the virus?

hi,

thanks for your question

you can get muscle and joint pain as a result of a viral infection.

antiinflammatory medication can help with the symptoms.

if your child still refuses to walk I would have her assessed by a physician as there are other causes for this that need to be excluded.

best wishes
