My daughter was premature 4lb 2oz and all her ivs where done through her tiny feet. Today, a healthy 8 yr old complains about pain on both her feet. She had an xray at age 4 or 5 and revealed inflamation. Recently had had another xray and everything appears normal. My daughter randomly has excruciating pain when she steps and no pain medication appears to hrlp. I always put a warm compress to alleviate the pain but that is temporary. Any suggestions. Im freaking out and im scared. Please help.
Hello... reviewed your question... now first thing make clear that if in previous 8 years she had no complaint anything about leg pain than these pains are not due to IVs at the time of birth... there are many reasons for this kind of pain including it deficiency, it d deficiency, iron deficiency and many others... also osteomyelitis and myopathies must be ruled out... need to consult pediatrician and orthopedic surgeon.... feel free to contact anytime to discuss reports and other things in future
