Dear Wazuans,

My son, 2 years 4 months old has been experiencing acute pain on the knee for the last 4 months.

The pain moves from one leg to the other.

The pain dissapears for about 10 days then reccurs.

Doctors (general practitioners/paedetricians/bone specialists)have done numerous tests including Xrays,MRI's,Ultra Sound,Full Body Haemogram etc and are unable to diagnose what the problem is.
Initially he was put on a very strong dose of anti-biotics and pain killers. The pain subsided for a little while but resurfaced before the dosage was over.


As his parents we completely reduced his intake of animal protein and sugars (no snacks, no sweets etc) but the problem still persists.

It is now extremely frustrating (for us as his parents) as he is in alot of pain and cannot walk.

Anyone with ideas on a way forward!

Asante sana, God bless.

That must be frustrating for a parent, I wish all the best as you seek for the best solution~

it seems it might be reffered pain. Go to India they have the best medics there

I support this. If you have already seen the who is who in Kenya then try India. India has one of the best medical care in the world and the doctors are highly qualified and professional. Plus the costs are almost the same with here, probably even cheaper.

My brother-in-Law in suffering from Kidney failure and he has experience with the Indian medical system. He can offer advice on where to go or who to see and maybe the procedures that you may need. In addition, he can connect you with a doctor and you can share the child's symptoms and do an initial diagnosis and they can tell you the way forward.

If you are interested email me on chepkel25@gmail.com and i'll give you his number.
I wish you all the best and I sure will remember your boy in my praeyers. I have a 4 year old too so I can imagine how you are feeling.
