Kindly do the following:
1. Hold xray against a window with clear background and plenty of light. A viewbox of the hospital would be best
2. Take a photo with mobile phone camera
3. Mail it to bdbaruah[at]orthodoc[dot]in for a second opinion.
Next Steps
Keep hand supported in arm sling while travelling. You can get in the local pharmacy. Take over the counter pain meds. Ice the injured part. Return home and visit the nearest ortho surgeon.
