I fell at work 2 moths ago, and had an MRI, It showed an hair line fracture and I was sent to an orthopedic doctor, this Dr said their was no real evidence of an Hairline fracture so he put me on crushes and send me back to work to sit. Now my symptoms seems to be getting worse. with coldness from my knee to my toes and pain in my knee and leg. Should I see a different Dr?
hello and welcome again, You need to get a repeat X-ray. Sometimes hair line fractures show up later. Th pain and cold sensation could be due to compression of some nerve.
Thanks and take care Dr Shailja Puri
