5th metacarpal break, can I do conservative treatment?

It’s been 2 weeks and I have been in a splint for 2 weeks, x rays were taken 1 week after accident by ortho. Issue is I have to fly the 8th for a family emergency for 3 weeks

Had a break in the 5th medicarpal advice needed

So I had a oblique fracture in my fifth metal carbon through the diaphysis and from the x-rays what I saw was it was mostly broken, but the outer edge was still intact. I’m in a splint now and I have orthopedics check up on Tuesday, but I’m worried that it might have shifted and I might need orthopedic surgery. Obviously I can’t get a hold of the x-rays because they gave me a DVD and it’s the weekend but based on the description of the ER doctor and the radiologist, can you guys point me in some sort of direction I’m really freaking out.

First track day at NYST, any tips to improve?

I’m super rusty on riding, I forgot basic cues like light bars, kissing the mirror, and outside pec to the inside bar…

Got a really good internship and leaned off, want another few experiences and maybe a co-op, would like some advice on the resume so I can beef it up. Don’t have a gpa on there as it’s really bad and I don’t want to put myself in a bad light. Currently in the east coast and searching in the area. Would be willing to relocate if warranted
