I had a gyan on hairline fracture today, especially after the x-ray results came out.
It is a fracture in which the fragments do not separate because the line of break is so fine. It is also called as capillary fracture. Since the bone fragments remain in alignment, they appear on the X-ray film as a very very thin line. One good thing is that it has minimal trauma to the bone and the surrounding tissues. It is an incomplete fracture and is considered a very stable one.
Luckily for me, the X-rays did not show any signs of a fracture. However, the doctor is not eliminating the possibility and is only giving me the benefit of doubt. Hmm… Am under medication for the next 5 days. And if the pain persists, I would have to go for a digital X-ray.
I guess you are the first fielder to get the benifit of doubt...ha ha
ReplyDeleteJokes apart, take care dude, its good to know there are no hair line fractures.
though that X-Ray looks cool!

Mridu,
In fact I did search my database for a smiling face of mine. As you know, when it comes to photos, am pretty much a glum character. But then I would definitely have it changed to honour your request.
Thanks for your get well wish !
