Salter 1 growth plate injury?


O.k. I hurt my ankle on Monday when I was playing basketball and I simply thought that I sprained it. Well I went to the E.R. this morning because my ankle be huge and bruised and I thought that I fractured it. There wasn't any broken bones but the doctor suspects that I might have Salter 1 gowth plate injury. My grill is what is Salter 1 growth plate injury and how long would I be out of basktball if I do have this. Is Salter 1 growth plate injury something severely serious? Thanks

I hit my head hard, it bled quite a lot, now I feel really shaky inside ?




Answers:    Basically what he is saying is "I come up with you broke your ankle, but because it might be in the growth plate we wont be capable of tell until a week or two" If you hold a fracture you could be out of basketball for 5-6 weeks depending on how large it is. And no, its not severely serious, a serious injury would be like a broken femur or something resembling that,
