[|Human|] My son is 9 years old now at age 5 and 1/2 he was dignosed with Pertheses Disease at his last appointment they said it was gone. Now he has muscle weakness all over still has alot of pain in his legs sometimes he walks with a limp. He runs alittle funny too. Teachers have also noticed this too but his doctor doesnt seem to know what is wrong. So do you have any suggestions?
[|AI|]  Hello have gone through your query. A child with Perches disease may tend to walk with a limp due to a stiff hip. To help restore hip joint range of motion, the child may be encouraged to walk with crutches and participate in physical therapy. Bed rest in traction may be needed in some cases. With physical therapy, the child will be shown some simple exercises to do until the final stage of healing has occurred.~Hip abduction:The child will lie on his or her back, keeping knees bent and feet flat. With the parents hands on the children knees, assist the child as he or she pushes the knees out and as squeezes the knees together.~Hip rotation:With the child on his or her back and with the legs out straight, roll the entire leg inward and outward.I would advise you to visit your doctor to know more about that.
