I called my ortho guy on the way to ED, by the time I arrived orders were waiting for X-rays. Non displaced usually immobilized, call office in a.m.
Displaced or compound surgery would have been done that evening, depending on food and drink intake.

It was non displaced, so after X-rays, he sent me home, no drugs, office in 3 days.
