Injury

[Piper2015]

So my daughter sprained her ankle and can't walk on it. She doesn't want a wheelchair or a scooter! What would you suggest? She wants to limp on her toes but that would injure her toes wouldnt it? She refuses for me to take her to the doctor

She needs to see a doctor and use something to get around the parks, it's miles a day of walking. She's not going to get by limping on her toes.

That won't even get her to the front gate. You're going to have to find a way to get her to see that.

Since when do kids decide when they are going to see the doctor?

IMHO, your daughter should see a doctor and get an X-ray to make sure that it's just a sprained ankle.

She could get one of these:

How do you know it’s sprained if you haven’t taken her to a doctor? You need a professional opinion not input from a fan forum.

Curious as to how old she is. If she can't walk on it, I don't think limping or trying to walk on her tippy toes is going to cut it. If she's a teen then you just need to lay down the law. If she's an adult, then she should know better. Nobody wants to spend their vacation with someone who will obviously be in severe discomfort by their own choosing.

See a doctor first, then discuss mobility options.

Okay so good morning! So good news she feels a lot better! She swells up badly from a mosquito bite. She did twist it but she woke up this morning able to walk on it!
