A 12 year old boy is brought in with a bone fracture injury. Occured while running and then falling forward, landing on his right arm. Right elbow appears broken, and part of the bone in the upper arm appears to be protruding from the skin. There appears to be fragments of bone in the wound. We learn the child is lactose intolerant. He never consumes dairy and only eats burgers, hot dogs, spaghetti, and junk food.
