I got a hairline fracture in my ankle by to running up a slide and jumping off and due to not wearing proper shoes. When I landed I mistakenly landed on my left foot and due to all that force coming down on that one ankle, the outer part of my foot touched the side of my calf..... It swelled up so bad that when I got it X-Ray'd the doctors couldn't see the fracture, they thought I just got a real bad sprain. It wasn't until a week later they realized I had a hairline fracture in my ankle.
Sorry for rambling on. :P
4-6 weeks
No, the mre wEight you put on it, the worse it gets.
A hairline fracture is a nondisplaced fracture.
hello,yes you can put it in a cast because at the moment i have fractured my hairline and the doctor put my ankle in plaster all the way up to my knee. It helps support the ankle and you must not put any weight on it once it is in the cast though. Hope this helps.
Tim's leg had a hairline fracture.
A fracture is a complete break in a bone, while a hairline fracture is a small, partial crack in the bone. Hairline fractures may not be easily visible on imaging studies and can be more difficult to diagnose compared to regular fractures. Treatment for hairline fractures usually involves rest and immobilization to allow healing.
If your ankle is swollen slightly then you should not have to convince your father that you have sprained your ankle. Put hot and cold cloths on it to bring the swelling down and a tensor bandage (not too tight) that you can buy at the drug store. Meanwhile talk to your mother or an aunt to have the ankle looked at in case you have a hairline fracture.
Yes
Rest
Yes but I would not do it
A hairline hip fracture, also known as a stress fracture, can be one of the hardest fractures to diagnose. You would experience a great deal of pain when any pressure is placed on the leg in which the hip fracture is located.
How long a cast is on depends on the location of the hairline fracture. In sensitive areas the cast will need to be worn longer.
