Question 1

what are signs of bone/joint displacement?

Accepted Answer

OUCH!!!: Pain, deformity, loss of function.

Question 2

broken toe (last bone basis).slight displacement & slightly affected joint. do i need surgery? 2 docs said no by now. possible long term consequences?

Accepted Answer

Possible: A fracture involving the joint is more serious, however will often not require surgery. They will often monitor for proper healing and alignment.

Question 3

is it possible that a really severe ankle sprain or slight bone fracture cause bone displacement in the ankle joint. and thus limit mobility?

Accepted Answer

Mobility: As dr beresh said - yes .  And you should see your podiatrist for help.

Question 4

would i be considered partially handicaped? i have plates, screw in my leg near my ankle, but need my ankle fused because the joint is bone to bone with bone spurs by the heal, haven't had it done because they told me i would have a permenant limp, becaus

Accepted Answer

It : It seems to me that you have a limp now with your bone on bone. Getting some good rocker bottom shoes your limp would be minimal and you will get pain relief.

Question 5

does  a meniscal displacement cause pain along the joint line? what are some of the symptoms of having a displacement?

Accepted Answer

Yes: A displaced meniscus usually is associated with pain on  the affected side. Pain typcally comes with a certain  twisting of the knee particularly as you come up from a squatting position. It is also associated with the sensation that the knee "locks" meaning you can not straight the knee out all the way.You can experience various degrees of swelling of the knee joint as well.

Question 6

how long does a bone need to heal? broken big toe. 2/3 of bone, very slight displacement.

Accepted Answer

6-8 weeks: Some docs would not allow you to walk on this and would prefer you crutch walk, need to follow your docs orders.

Question 7

i have a increased posterior displacement of the oblique proximal fibular fx upper part of the bone. what is the treatment for this?

Accepted Answer

Orthopedics: I believe you are reporting from your X Ray findings. Discuss this with your doctor or Orthopaedic specialist involved in the treatment. It may mean that the current immobilisation is not sufficient and your fractured bone is not well aligned. It is difficult to comment without seeing the X ray or examining you

Question 8

i am so upset and worried about a broken big toe (last bone). do athletes recover fully with slight displacement, slightly affected junction?

Accepted Answer

Don't worry: You should have a full recovery after a broken big toe even with a slight displacement.  There is no reason that you will not be able to return to all of the sports that you are wanting after the fracture heals.  Be a little patient and you will do well.

Question 9

is there a correlation between severe painful cervical degenerative disease and ant disc displacement without reduction/bone  spurs and pain in tmj?

Accepted Answer

Linear Correlation: between Cervical Degenerative Disc Disease and TMJ well documented. The result of changes in the C2-C5 can cause pain in the cervical area and refer pain to the TMJ and facial structures, regardless of the anterior disc displacement.

Question 10

tmj disc displacement and degeneration lead to conduce fractures,since there is no cusion between the bones?

Accepted Answer

: If you mean condyle fracture, no, TMJ disc displacement and/or degeneration will not lead to fractures.
