Lower Leg (Shin) X-ray (both sides)

This is a two-view x-ray of the lower leg — the shinbone and the thinner bone beside it — billed for both legs. The shinbone sits directly under the skin and takes the body's weight, so a break in it is both common after a hard impact and unable to be walked off. The films show where the break is and whether the thinner bone broke with it.
