What Causes Child Not Put Weight On Right Leg Foot?

My 2-3yr nephew twisted to his right and fell to the floor. He will not put wt on his R LE foot. He will crawl on his knees but when he stands he will not step onto the RLE FOOT. Leg length is equal and knee height is even. When long sitting or supine, his R foot is slighted pointed in. He has no tenderness at the ankle but very little.
