Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: Chalice on 13/10/2011, 09:15 PM Its a growth bone and is completely natural in a child of 8..no editing here...none at all, move along..these are not the droids you are looking for
Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: CordlezToaster on 13/10/2011, 09:51 PM Medial epicondyle fracture of the humerus has been my opinion to Bohica (not hard to diagnose the massive chip of floating bone...although the fucking hospital somehow managed to miss that ??? )......on top of her radial head fracture..poor little bugger. :( Please answer it in your normal fashion. Well Bohica im glad you asked...........

Well Bohica im glad you asked........... Fair call...dont know what I was thinking!! Well Bohica...I'm glad you asked! Having looked at the X-Ray and in my medical opinion I'd say her neck is out. A decent trip to the Chiro and she'll be right in no time at all..in regards to that piece of bone you see..thats clearly just a vertebrae thats out thats all...nothing to worry about, they'll slip her patella back in line with her femur and she'll be right as rain. Hope that helps, Chalice M.D. Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: CordlezToaster on 14/10/2011, 05:06 AM Medial epicondyle fracture of the humerus has been my opinion to Bohica (not hard to diagnose the massive chip of floating bone...although the fucking hospital somehow managed to miss that ??? )......on top of her radial head fracture..poor little bugger. :( Please answer it in your normal fashion.

I thought i would fill you in a little, that bone fragment is actual the epicondyle bone itself, at her age it is a floater, and not in the traditional sense of the word either.

Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: Chalice on 14/10/2011, 08:25 AM Breaks clearly in the radial head, He was wondering how they missed that floating piece of bone...until I told him about the fact that its normal to have a floating Epicondyle in an 8yr old of course :-X
Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: BoHiCa on 14/10/2011, 08:29 AM Thank you Doctor Chal, you are the best your $500 councelling fee is in the mail. Yours Sincerely, The Bohica Bunch Nothing to see at the bottom of this post..move along :-X Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: Chalice on 14/10/2011, 08:40 AM Glad I could help Bohica..keep your money, this one's on me ;)
Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: Sillen on 14/10/2011, 08:57 AM so does this mean you're attending next weekend or not?
Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: mandatory05 on 14/10/2011, 11:55 AM Well at least they could have let you know about the floating bone, so you dont flip out when you notice that it looks like your daughter is missing a chunk of her bone........
Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: Chalice on 14/10/2011, 12:47 PM I did tell him..clearly...haven'tyou read my totally unedited posts or something 8)
Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: mandatory05 on 14/10/2011, 01:08 PM I did tell him..clearly...haven'tyou read my totally unedited posts or something 8) haha but i meant the doctors at the hospital. When my brother snapped his leg they went through everything so my mum knew that his kneecap wasnt supposed to be physically attached to his knee :\ Title: Re: Dr Chal Post by: Chalice on 14/10/2011, 01:13 PM True, I'll give them a professional courtesy call from one doctor to another and word em up they only need to read the ask chalice section to recognize my authority on it LOL ;)
