How is the condition diagnosed?
After doing a complete medical history and physical exam, the
doctor may order:
a biopsy
of any fluid or growths to check for infection or tumors
a nerve conduction test,
also called an NCV, to measure nerve damage from the injury
blood tests to rule out infection, including a
complete blood count
imaging tests, such as MRI,
if a tumor is suspected
X-rays to locate the break and its severity
