I felt the leg and there is no break. I do not know how to tell if there is a hairline fracture. Will aspirin hurt her? I don't want to make her feel worse.If she did damage her leg, she may have a hairline fracture. That is just as painful as a full fracture. A severe injury will cause illness like symptoms.
Administer:
Baby Aspirin or low dose aspirin, .40 mg. for pain (this may be given up to 3 times a day)
If there is a break she'll need a sling.
Here is a simple sling. Use a large plastic tub. Be sure to make the leg holes big enough so that her feet go through easily.
