The Gp says this could be part of the healing process and going back to work taking it out of him. Here is what it says on the copy of the xray report the GP just gave him Fracture of the floor of the left orbit causing a teardrop along the roof of the left antrum.There is also fracture of the lateral wall of the antrum causing mucosal thickening and some fluid in the inferior angle. Diastasis of the left frontozygomatic suture and left orbital emphysema all indicate bone injury. no idea what half of it means actually..lol

Swelling around his skin cut and swelling all show there is a break. Hope he feels well soon, and doesn't do too much while he gets back up to speed at work.
