@DustinLewisNG This is a thumb spica split (a nice one too). Likely x-rays were negative, but the scaphoid bone can hide hairline fractures. We often immobilize it for repeat x-ray in 12 days (or for Squirrel an MRI tomorrow). I’m an ER doctor so that is my best guess.
@SCPTheHotness @DustinLewisNG If it is a hairline fracture, can he play with it? How long does it take to heal?
@JASMYAtoms @DustinLewisNG No, would be cast for 6 weeks
@SCPTheHotness @DustinLewisNG Thank you Doctor! Do you think it’s likely he will be good to go by 9/26?
@bobbytrunole @DustinLewisNG Unfortunately, no idea. Even if it’s not a scaphoid fracture, it could be a ligamentous injury. Those tend to linger.
@SCPTheHotness @DustinLewisNG Thank you twitter doctor
@SeminoleHim @DustinLewisNG Wait until you see the co-pay…😜
@SCPTheHotness @DustinLewisNG This could be completely wrong and I truly don’t care because it sounds great and I love it. Thank you Shawn
@SCPTheHotness @DustinLewisNG Save y’all some time…
