Hurt Foot?

Last night we noticed that Maddie would not put any weight on her left foot. Up until that time she was walking, running etc. We have looked at it and there is nothing that we can see in it like a splinter or a blister. It is not swollen that we can tell. She got up this morning and still will not walk on it. When we stand her up she holds her foot up and fusses. Does anyone have any idea why she might be doing this?

Nope, no idea
Obviously it's hurting her. It may be her ankle or leg or knee, you need to check her whole leg.
I would take her to the doctor if she isn't puting weight on it over the next 24 hours.

Please let us know how she goes

Thanks genie. She was walking on it earlier but limping. We think it might be her toe????

That could be Meagan. I hope it stops bothering her soon for Maddie

Aww.... poor Maddie! How is she doing now, Meagan?

Sorry I didn't get to you on this one... did everything check out? Maybe she stubbed a toe or pulled a muscle?

I never did figure it out. But she is walking normally again. Kids are so weird!
