Feedback
1. Active athletes can potentially continue sports participation if immobilization in a well-padded cast is allowed by game rules/regulations.
2. A removable splint typically has metal stays in it that would injure another player and are not permitted.
3. A fiberglass cast will allow for immobilization and has less chance of harming other players.
4. An ace bandage, ice, and NSAIDs are treatment modalities better served for initial care to reduce pain and swelling, but not for fracture care.

Answer to Question 2

A
Bulimics binge on easily acquired high-calorie foods eaten in private.
