Doctor state, The right 5th toe has a fracture at the proximate neck which appears to be s/l comminuted.  Does this make sense the way it's written?  TIA.

s/l radia but wondering if radius
Subject: s/l radia but wondering if radius

The plural form would be radii (right?).  It sounds just like radiA and here is the sentence in its entirety.  Some tenderness over the left trapezius muscle over the suprascapular (radius or radia or radii) and also over the posterior axillary muscles.  But since it is on the left, I thought it might be radius.  What do you all think? 


It probably is radius but wanted to check.  Thanks!
