Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I recently fractured the calcaneous and had to have open reduction and fixation surgery done. 3 months and my xray report says that there is a large well corticated bone fragment cephalad to the midportion of the calcaneous adjacent to the Achilles Tendon.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, such appearance greatly depends upon the clinical condition, if you do not have any symptom as long as the fragment of bone is concern then it is nothing to worry and everything would be fine soon, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
