Kudos to you and all your efforts!!! I've always looked for something like this. Lot's of pics/information in a central location. I also believe this should be kept pinned.

Thank you for your dedication!

Turns out it is/was a linear fracture from about 6 inchs up all the way down to the "ankle"

Wow! Thanks a bunch. I had heard of some of these problems but had no idea what to look for! It's like getting an early Xmas present!

Here are a couple pictures of ringworm around the eye. It isn't a big problem, unless they end up scratching the cornea while they are scratching the ringworm.

Milkmaid,

The best educational post ever made.

With your permission I propose that we make it an ongoing thread of educational pics to be built upon by everyone in honor of your thoughfulness.

We can all learn from them.

Great! I was just concerned because it had creeped down a bit. Thanks. This is a "must read" for all newbies/beginners.
