Hamsters and other small animals can be extremely fragile and break bones easily. The best thing to do for a hamster with a broken toe is to take him to the vet and her have set the toe. That way, it will heal correctly, and not cause the hamster pain in the future.
There is no "cure" for a fractured toe, the toe needs to be set and wrapped so it does not move. A cast cannot be placed on a single toe and a foot cast does not help as the toe will tend to move each time weight is place on the foot. A crutch or cane can be used for a few weeks but care needs to be taken by the patient not to move the toe.
A fracture is just another word for a crack in your bone, and the word "hairline" is to imply that the crack itself is literally as thin as a strand of hair. If you knocked a vase over and a thin line appeared, but the vase did not break, that would be like a hairline fracture to your bone.
you can do a back handspring but it will turn out sideways it wont be straight and it wont be as great as you have done before

Fracture means a type of break. Not the same as a broken bone. A broken bone is when the bone snaps and the two peices of bone come apart. A fracture is when the bone breaks but does not come apart/disconnect.

Like any bone in a limb, a toe can be broken when the force or twisting motion outweighs the strength of a bone. Most toe fractures happen from falls, twisting falls, jamming the toe against an immovable object, or dropping a significant weight on it. Toes can be broken at any point, but often occur at the base or main joint. Toes are NOT normally put into a cast, but are often "Buddy-taped" to another toe to act as a support and splint.
A toe fracture is possibly one of the most painful fractures (except the spine). Because of the small area, swelling spreads into adjoining tissues---which means all the toes will be painful, difficult or impossible to bend, and all will likely turn lovely shades from blue, black, purple, and green. With a single broken toe, it will be almost impossible to bear weight or to walk. Because a natural step requires the human foot to "roll" from the toes down on the floor (with heel up), to heel on the floor (as toes lift), a fracture in any toe makes that natural rocking motion exquisitely painful. Although hopping is an idea, the idea is short lived because every hop jars the painful toe/foot. Therefore, most people with a broken toe end up in a chair for several days to a week.
A compound fracture can be described as when the bone is visible sticking out of the skin
It took mine around 4 weeks to heal but my mom didnt take me to the doctor til two weeks after i did it so i only needed a cast for 4 weeks but i would of needed it for 6.
Fractures are broken bones. Most fractures occur from: * Sudden accelleration or decelleration -- car collisions, falls * Torsion -- sharp twists -- side car collisions etc. * Penetration trauma -- bullet wounds * Crushing or compression -- car acciddents, something falling on you * Repetitive Impact (jumping up and down for a few hours on a very hard surface can cause shin splints -- small, linear stress fractures).
A broken patella can take up to eight weeks to mend depending on the type of break. If there are complications associated with the break or if the break is a compound fracture, this can take a little longer.
Calcaneal fractures, also known as Lover's fracture and Don Juan fracture, are a fracture of the calcaneus or heel. A Nondisplaced calcaneus fracture is a stable fracture where the broken ends of the bones meet up correctly and are aligned.
A hip fracture generally refers to the fracture of the head or neck of the femur (thigh) bone. There are several different areas that can suffer a fracture and still be called a hip fracture. For example, a fracture to the greater or lesser trochanters of the femur are also commonly called hip fractures by the general public.
