Baby can't walk
My baby suddenly stopped walking after 3.6 years. This happened after she got a fever. We have taken blood test report. In that inflammation in first hour is 121 mm (expected 0-18mm). We were worried as our baby was not walking. We had a conversation with a pediatrician and he said nothing to worry as blood test report doesn't show anything apart from inflammation. He recommended 2 days rest. But now after 2 days rest, we see slight improvement but still she is struggling to walk
