Fever, Mucus, Pain in the Legs of a Small Child

 

March 2016: Proof again and again that small situations are perceived differently by the little ones and affect them much more strongly than us: on Wednesday I went with our son (2 years and 5 months old) to a children's workshop, familiar place, familiar people. I sat at the table with him, we glued, we drew.

Towards the end of the workshop, the children gather to be told a story. This time he wanted to go alone and sat alone among the children - I was happy, normally he wanted me to go with him. I went downstairs to talk to other parents, during this time he didn't see me for about 10 minutes. He was preoccupied with the story and I didn't think it affected him.

When leaving, he spent about 15 minutes going up and down and playing on some steps (which descended from the floor where the workshop was held), steps that he was usually afraid of. He wanted to go up and down alone.

The result: on Wednesday to Thursday night he woke us up - cryin, fever, he complained that the upper part of his left leg hurts - in the thigh. He went to bed - after 2 hours, the same thing, the right leg, in another 2 hours, and the fever, both legs...

Thursday all day fever, mucus, leg pain disappeared. On Friday the fever disappeared and now we are fighting the mucus...

What I understood: fever - conflict: I am afraid of this situation I don't know how to escape. He felt in danger, either when he was alone or on the stairs. I left him in the diaper overnight, let fresh air inside the room several times, that's how it got away.

Mucus - now we are at the peak - the place was not new, the people were not new, I say that the fact that he was alone without me in the visual range was perceived as a new situation that had to be sniffed. For 3 nights, the whole house has been sleeping badly because he woke up with a stuffy nose and it bothered him. That's it... this too shall pass. We tried to keep the nose as clean as possible so that we don't get into a suffocation conflict and then a productive cough. Maybe at least we get away with this...or...it's possible that the stairs have been sniffed out as a potentially dangerous situation.

Leg pain that passed very quickly - muscle devaluation conflict. I mean the little one took on a situation that he wasn't sure he could "deal with". He went up and down some very high stairs by himself and was not sure if he would succeed or not. At that moment his muscles suffered a slight atrophy - imperceptible of course. He succeeded, he got over the conflict. The pain appeared during the healing phase when the body creates new stronger muscle cells and test nerve terminations. Why pain? because the nerves test the repaired area to be functional.

Thank you, Dr. Hamer!
