How Long Will It Take For My Hairline Fracture To Heal?
How long does it take for Percocet 5-325 to kick in? And how long due the effects last ( I am a 5'4" 145 pound 35 year old female with a broken left upper tuberosity of my humerus bone). Last question: how long will it take for my hairline fracture to heal? I injured it first on Jan 12 and today is Jan 27 and I am still in pain.
Thank you!

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
A hair line fracture usually heals in 4-6 weeks if adequate rest is provided to the arm. The pain killer you are taking usually shows an effect for 4-6 hours.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
