The knuckle of the little finger
An oblique distal fibula fracture is a break in the smaller bone of the lower leg. The break is located closer to the ankle than to the knee, and the break has a diagonal orientation. The use of both "acute" and "subacute" doesn't make sense.
The distal ends of the tibia and fibula are the malleoli (singular malleolus). The tibia has the medial malleolus, and the fibula has the lateral malleolus.
a break in the bone is the same as a fracture.
The fifth bone by your pinky is the most common broken bone in your hand. That type of fracture is called a boxers fracture. It is fairly easy to break. Many people break it by punching walls or the floor. You can break it easily by punching an immovable object.
The medical terminology for this is a "stress fracture".stress fracturestress fracture
It really depends on what metacarpal(s) were broken and how severe the break(s) are. A boxer's fracture is the fracture of the fourth or fifth metacarpal. The 4th is the ring finger and the 5th is the pinky. I recently broke my fifth metacarpal. I will spend 4 weeks in a cast, two more weeks in a brace and then another six weeks of self rehabilitation to everything to get back to normal.

I seriously doubt it, but it will depend on the severity of the fracture. A boxer's fracture is defined as a break through the bones of the hand that form the knuckles (usually the head of the metacarpal). Some doctors use the term "brawler's fracture" rather than "boxer's fracture" because a boxer is not likely to get this injury. The less well-trained brawlers have to learn how to punch without hurting themselves. Using a broken hand that is not properly immobilized can cause damage to surrounding muscles, blood vessels, tendons, ligaments, and nerves. When a boxer's fracture occurs, it is possible for a portion of the metacarpal bone to move out of normal alignment. This is called angulation. The amount of angulation will determine what type of treatment is required to ensure proper healing. People with boxer's fractures who have acceptable amounts of angulation may be splinted in the emergency department or doctor's office. Any degree of angulation in the second or third metacarpal bones is considered abnormal and requires referral to a hand specialist for possible surgical repair. Boxer's fractures of the fourth and fifth metacarpal bones only require surgery if large degrees of angulation are present and the bones cannot be moved into the correct place by pulling and pushing on them.

A break and a fracture are exactly the same the same thing. The word "fracture" is just a medical term for a break.

A simple fracture - results in a 'clean' break across the bone. A green-stick fracture is an incomplete break.
