Can Injury Cause A Bubble In The Shoulder Blade In Infants?
Hi, may I answer your health queries right now My one year old baby had a minor fall a couple of weeks ago....four days after the fall she had an x ray. The radiologist ordered a bone scan, as it appears there is a hollow area in her shoulder bone with a non lumenous spot comparable to a bubble Could that be due to the injury????? i m really scared.

Hi.... I do not think that this is related to the injury she has sustained. I feel that we need to rule out osteomyelitis or infection of the bone or a neoplasm which is going on. I suggest that you consult a paediatric orthopaedic surgeon regarding this.
