They should provide clarification on whether there was one broken bone or several, or many.Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052445200220681513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-785311472371282139.post-15346600492993784402020-06-21T14:04:13.851-04:002020-06-21T14:04:13.851-04:00I had both my wrists broken at the same time..they...I had both my wrists broken at the same time..they don't put a hard cast on right away due to any swelling, I did NOT take the narcotic because it's too risky and it could make you feel over worse, I found putting an ice pack on helped with the pain, keep it elevated on a soft pillow and I took 600 mg otc pain reliever. according to the instructions, at night it helps to put a pillow beside you and lay your arm on the pillow..it took 6 weeks for one cast to come off and 10 for the other, I did not have to have surgery but that depends on whether you bones stay in place. The Dr forced mine back into place and that hurt like hell.

I know when I broke my ankle the doc didn't get too excited until he realized I had also ruptured my Achilles tendon. So shattered ankle not a big deal except to me. But if you aren't comfortable with him, definutely get another opinion.

But yes like Rick said they see so many injuries that it is not a big deal.
