My daughter is autistic she fell on her right arm at daycare, they didn t think she hurt herself. We had x rays and everything appears to be fine. She can t lift her right arm, she can move her fingers tho She helps get arm with her other. she appears to not be in pain and also doesn t cry when any part of her arM is touched could this be neurological?
Hello....... Thanks for your query. I do understand your concern for your child. It is definitely possible that your child could have developed a euro/vascular deficit following the fall. Being an autistic child she would have difficulty in expressing the symptoms as well making assessment difficult. Though x-ray is normal, I would suggest you visit a neurologist/orthopaedician for an opinion on the same. Hope you found the information useful. Regards Chat Doctor.
