Dodgers Player Freddie Freeman’s 3-Year-Old Son Can’t Stand or Walk Amid Viral Infection – E! Online

MLB’s Freddie Freeman and his family are in the midst of a difficult time.

The Dodgers first baseman and his wife Chelsea Freeman shared that their 3-year-old son Maximus was rushed to the emergency room as he was experiencing severe pain that made it difficult for him to sit or stand.

“Please say a prayer for Maximus,” Chelsea wrote on her Instagram Story July 24, per Us Weekly. “Dr says he developed transient synovitis from the viral infection he had at All-Star Week. Day 3 of not being able to sit, stand or walk.”

Transient synovitis is a “temporary inflammation of the hip can cause limping and pain in the hip and leg,” according to Kids Health.

The 33-year-old also put out a plea out to her fans, asking if they had “any tips to help toddlers take/keep down medicine?”

“He is usually good at taking medicine,” she explained about Maximus, “but he keeps spitting it out.”
