    Doesn’t even have to be a clean break to immobilize you. My first break was my right arm at 9-yo, on my birthday. Every thought I was being a wuss, because I was. Next day the doctor popped the X-ray on the wall light, “I TOLD YOU!”.

    Anyway, it was just a crack, not sure how to define it medically. I believe he called it a greenstick fracture, but after looking at pics, it wasn’t that bad.
