Closed reduction treatment for a split arm bone?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes if stable: Yes this is possible if the fracture can be reduced and a stable alignment is possible. X-rays will likely be performed immediately after reduction and likely one week later to confirm a stable appearance with immobilization or controlled passive motion
