مريض بعد تثبيت داخلي لكسر في الساق، أي ملاحظة تحتاج إبلاغاً فورياً؟

After internal fixation of a leg fracture, which finding needs immediate reporting?

1. Mild pain relieved by analgesia
2. Cold pale toes with weak pulse and numbness
3. A small bruise around the wound
4. Slight swelling that settles with elevation

Answer: B) Cold pale toes with weak pulse and numbness. Neurovascular checks (colour, warmth, pulse, sensation, movement) are vital after fractures; coldness, pallor, weak pulse and numbness indicate compromised perfusion.
