With a bone bruise there is bleeding within the bone which can only be detected with a MRI, but there is no fracture present. A bone bruise is caused by significant force, but not enough to cause a fracture. A fracture requires more force than a bone bruise.  Calling a fracture a bone bruise is a deliberate misrepresentation of the injury which is exactly what Marvin Lewis did with Braham's injury. 

If Dez has a tibial plateau fracture it is a more serious injury than a bone bruise and will require more time to heal even if they claim it is "hairline."  Whomever is throwing that bone bruise bullshit out there is trying to pull a Marvin Lewis. They're trying to deliberately mislead people. Or they are misinformed. Possibly both. 

The term bone bruise is a misnomer and makes the injury seem less serious than it is.  A so-called bone bruise is actually a fracturing of the inner layer of bone.

Not trying to hijack the thread, but this doctor states that a bone bruise is a fracture...
