10 POINTS TO BEST ANSWEr?


Question:
ok i was on the phone with my cousin in Albany and when we were on the phone he fell down the stairs and his leg got caught in the banister thing and he kept going down the stairs(only like 3 steps) could his leg possibly break? Even if the fall wasent that bad? THANKS

Answers:
Yes it could break, but on the other hand it depends on the fall. Like the amount of impact and how the leg was twisted ect.

If his leg is swollen tell him to put ice of it, NOT on his skin, due a towel or zip lock bag. Putting Ice on the skin will case frostbite so I have been told and cause the skin to turn red.

If his leg is still swollen or turning I think is purple and he can't walk on it due to sharp stabbing pains, then yes it could be broken.

If I was him I would get it checked out ASAP.
Its possible.
Depending on the angle and speed at which he fell, then yes- it could almost certainly break. It is more likely, however- as long as he didn't feel/hear it snap- that the bone and muscle where his leg got caught may both be badly bruised.
Yes, it could possibly break. But, only he would know it at this time.
Your cousin could have fractured his leg...it doesn't take much, especially if he fell down stairs.
Not only could it get broken,it could have fractured. I hope he got medical attention immediatly because a bone fragment could cause even more damage to surrounding blood vessels and result in internal bleeding.
yes. your leg can break
if he's still in that position but i mean if he doesnt move and it doesn't feel broken to him right now then probably not but i don't know because i'm not a doctor. You should probably call one though :)
anythings possible has he gone to the emergency room yet could be broken twiste or fractured hopw hes ok now
it possible but i think he could tell if it was broken because of the pain
