What Causes Leg Pain In A 15 Month Baby?
Hello, My 15 months old baby girl started to have this leg pain and she wouldn t put her foot on the floor at first then a little after she would try and would start crying and limping when trying to walk. It bothered her more when I tried to stretch her knee or when she puts wait on it. I gave motrin and it seems to get just a little better but a am worried. What do you think it might be? I would appreciate any advice.

Since when is she having this problem?
Rule out trauma first and get an X-ray done.
If that is normal she will need to be evaluated for
Vit. C deficiency
Vit. D deficiency
and a muscular disorder
