A hairline fracture is a nondisplaced fracture.
Pain, swelling, unbearable pain while pressure is applied.
The tibia is the bigger bone in the lower leg. A tibia fracture is a brake in the bone.
Common symptoms of a cat with a tibia fracture include limping, swelling, and pain. Treatment options may include surgery to repair the fracture, immobilization with a splint or cast, and pain management medication. It is important to consult a veterinarian for proper diagnosis and treatment.
You can tell with X-rays, but it's really not worth it. The treatment is much the same- cooling, rest and elevation. A hairline fracture doesn't normally require a cast, so just be prudent in your activities for six to eight weeks.

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.
