My child is 19 month old .Last week Thursday he fell from sofa since then, he is limping on his right foot.His walk is not back to normal.He is not having any pain through out his leg when we touch and see from hip to foot.He is not giving equal balance on his right foot as his left.He is not keeping his complete right foot on the floor he is folding his fingers sometimes.He can able to climb on anything now but his walking is out of balance.We have consulted ortho doctor near by they took x ray for his pelvis AP View and doctor told nothing to be worried and just observe his walking actions.I am very much worried as there is no improvement for last one week.Please guide me is it okay to wait and watch.

    Take him back and voice your concerns, it's possible he has some internal bruising, have you a bath you could soak him in and let him rest it.
