Guest guest Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Hi all, My son attended orthopaedics today regarding ongoing issues with tired, painful legs and feet. He is 5yo with a diagnosis of asd and has been wearing orthotic insoles past 2years and have been told muscle tone is on the low side. We have had lots of physio input and lots of strengthening and stretching exercises. He does toe walk on occasion but is more likely to run on his toes. I should also say he is very prone to falls. The paediatrician we saw 2day has suggested botox to treat the tightness he has in calves he has very tight calves despite exercise especially on the right which has alot of resistance. Has any1 any experience of this treatment as i dont and would appreciate any input either thoughts, first hand experience or advice. Thanks in advance Nic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
