What Causes Breakage In Femur Bone Of A Child Without Any Severe Trauma?
my children were jumping in the bed in their room ages 5 and 3 which were my 2 sons and my daughter who is age 2 years old moments later i enter the room to hear my daughter screaming and sitting on the floor crying. my sons are sittin on their bed i take my daughter to the emergency room and was told that my daughter has a broken femur bone on her right leg. is it possible that my daughter had an awkward fall and my sons jumped on her leg and broke her femur?
Hello dear Greetings Sorry about your daughter! Regarding your daughters experience with fractured femur in the presence of two of your other sons jumping on the bed I am suggesting strongly that the fracture is as a result of sons falling on top of her
In view of this please do an x-ray of the femur to confirm the diagnosis
Please see an orthopaedic specialist with the result and for further expect evaluation and application of plaster of Paris (POP)
I hope this helps Regards
