yes it does.
but accuracy varies with radiologist and soft tissue shadows.it generally wont cause any serious problems to you.
fracture heals by itself.dont worry.
if headache blurring of vision or seizure or any other symptoms arise in first two days after fall approach doc immediately.
wish u a speedy recovery
