Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

This probably indicates injury to ligament of knee joint. Pain down the ankle and foot is referred pain. Kindly see an orthopedist, as this will need immobilisation of the joint for few days to promote healing. Meanwhile you can take ibuprofen tablets 3 times a day for pain, and minimise movements of the limb.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
