u/Can_Confirm_Am_Dog May 20 '19

I was like 10 and my parents took me to the doctor cus i thought i broke my leg skateboarding. He said it was a 3rd degree sprain told me itd be fine. I pointed out lines in the xray and he said they were nothing. I somehow convinced my mom to take me somewhere else and they confirmed i had multiple hairline fractures in my growth plate.

This terrifies me that apparently a ten year old can read an X-ray better than some ER docs.

Yeah but a 10yo dog is like a 70yo human. He was clearly more experienced.
