concerning 5th metatarsal x ray
Posted , 4 users are following.
7 weeks ago I fractured my 5th metatarsal but today I noticed another concerning looking thing on my xray:

does anyone have an idea what that could be? that part of foot does not hurt by itself but it is definitely sensitive if/when I touch it and press
thanks!

It looks like it should have been pinned to keep it straight during healing. It's just a laymens opinion, so you probably need to ask the doctor who treated you.

it was not pinned - just a medical shoe and crutches for 4 weeks.
I'm going to see my doctor just in couple of days to find out more but in the meantime I was just curious what are those "lines" on the attached picture - it's definitely not a artifact as it is present from many angels and on many pictures
