I just hope Heidi dosn't read this thread...

By their nature, hairline fractures are really hard to dx. Unless you get the right xrays, it is easy to miss. This is really the only way to say one way or another about a hairline fracture.

As for my toe, nothing broke. I've never broken any bone at anytime, but this is my first dislocation. I'm going to link to a picture, but be warned: You can see the middle phalange of toe III sticking out of the skin. It was interesting, the ortho docs had to talk for a minute to figure out the name of the joint, because it is apparently an oddball one. The distal interphalangeal joint on phalange III, DIP-III.
Dislocated toe. Blood and bone. Of course, Brandon may remove it.

I guess spell check dosn't like those words cause it gave me an error.
