A member asked:
Can a non displaced fracture of the sternum cause my chest to be red all the time? the fracture happened 10 weeks ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The fracture will take time to heal. The chest wall is also healing and soft tissue injury is one possible cause of the redness. Other considerations include a skin infection. Please see your physician. Monitor temperature and breathing.
