Chapter 510 link
It is revealed that the Doctor has broken his right femur with the neck of the femur fractured and twisted out of line. At the other end there was a fracture and close to the knee. The Doctor's femoral arteries are dangerously close to the sheared bone. Tom and Martha decide to place the Doctor in a traction brace. With help from Andy, Tom and Jack the doctor's is placed in the 48th century traction brace however the brace needed to have a secondary attachment instead of a top strap because of the Doctor's injury. Jack tries to find this in the TARDIS store with Donna's help looking for the attachment, Jack climbs up on a precarious ledge and manages to get his leg jammed through the hole in the brace.

Terminal Decay Chapter 508
Chapter 508 link
Tom goes to the Doctor in the lab where he is feeling dizzy and sick again. Tom wants to put on a split but is advised by Luke who has looked at the Doctor’s scans that he will need a full reduction: his bones had fractured and had forced his hand backward. The scans reveal an anomaly that appears spongy and less dense at the ends of his bones which as the Doctor explains are like shock absorbers but now are looking decalcified and brittle. They believe this has been caused by the Doctor’s chemotherapy drugs which has leached his bone of magnesium. Rather than giving the Doctor milk of magnesia they will have to find another magnesium supplement after tests are run to confirm that is what is wrong with the Doctor’s bones. As they are moving the Doctor to sit up from the lab table, the Doctor’s vertigo comes back and he loses his tea he had drank and his more dizzy. Jack offers to carry the Doctor back to bed but the Doctor seems to throw himself background over tipping the stool and landing on the floor.
