Is it normal for a fracture to be visible on x-ray after 50 days?

Hussein asked me an interesting question. He said, “I fractured my tibia and fibula. Is it normal after 50 days the fracture is still visible under x-ray, but I am walking with crutches and putting partial weight bearing without any pain or discomfort? My treatment was with a fiberglass cast without any surgery since the bones were not displaced.” Is it normal for a fracture to be visible on my x-ray after 50 days? Well, that is a great question and that is what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.
