My six year old broke both bones in his forearm about six weeks ago. One bone was completely misalined. Doctor put him to sleep and said he alined the bone by manipulation and casted. Took the cast off today and said it was healing fine but to me the xray looked like the bone was still misalined. Doctor said it looks fine. The motion looks fine when doctor was moving it but the bone still looks bad to me. He also has a lump on the arm but looks pretty stright compared to when he broke it. Should I be worried or will the lump go away and will the bone look better as time goes on? Or should I get a second opinion. Any advice would be appriciated.
