The hospital can see no obvious injury on Elliott, however they suspect a thing they call the ‘Toddler Fracture’

From Wikipedia:
Toddler’s fractures or childhood accidental spiral tibial (CAST) fractures are bone fractures of the distal (lower) part of the shin bone (tibia) in toddlers (aged 9 months-3 years) and other young children (less than 8 years).[1] The fracture involves the distal third to distal half of the tibia,[1] is undisplaced and has a spiral pattern. It occurs after low-energy trauma, sometimes with a rotational component.

So they are going to put a cast on his leg ;(

Poor wee mite.
