Hi,
We need few more details like age, how long the problems started, any pain in limbs and any similar illness in family. If there is no pain or limping on walking, this indicates weakness of proximal muscles which need a physical examination to look for conditions like myopathy, muscular dystrophy or neuropathy.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam TK, Pediatrician
