My 3 year old son when I picked him up from daycare said both of his feet hurt. Daycare said he was saying that today and taking shoes off. Just now after walking around this afternoon he started screamimg and crying that his feet hurt he couldnt walk. what should i do
Just examine both feet carefully for any thorn or other pricks. if nothing is seen then give your child syrup paracetamol for relieving pain. Change his footwear to micro cellular or very soft sponge like slippers. Make sure he wears them whenever he walks.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
