What Does This X-ray Report Indicate?
Question: I am 22 years old and had my first broken bone, a XXXXXXX Fracture. I am a wondering if you think it will require surgery. Non-smoker, no alcohol, try to eat healthy, exercise three times a week.
Brief Answer:
Surgery is not needed.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have seen the attached X-ray. The fracture is not much displaced. This can heal with conservative treatment. You can have a cast on for 3-4 weeks. This will not require a surgical fixation. Please do not worry.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
