My gymmie got knocked over the other day at practice and somehow her heel came down hard on one of those round iron weights that slides onto the bar for lifting. I can't really understand her description of how it happened, just that her heel got a hard whack. This was 3 days ago. She came out limping, and I had her ice it a few times but she can't really weight bear. Thinking today it should be getting better by now so I took her for x-ray, which was negative. I spoke to the doctor and she felt it was a bone bruise, and would go away in 3 - 5 days. Doc said to get her weightbearing asap. This afternoon she seemed a bit better, but very sore by evening. I am just wondering, has anyone else gone through this with their child? How long did it take for them to get better? I am also keeping in mind my kid is a bit of a hypochondriac and needs x-rays for a paper cut, if you know what I mean. Thanks
