Is it normal for a fracture to be visible on x-ray after 50 days?
About this episode
Hussein asked me an interesting question. He said,
“I fractured my tibia and fibula. Is it normal after 50 days the fracture is still visible under x-ray, but I am walking with crutches and putting partial weight bearing without any pain or discomfort? My treatment was with a fiberglass cast without any surgery since the bones were not displaced.”
