For the purpose of answering a question on an aviation medical form, would a mostly healed injury be considered a "disorder" or "condition" if it does not at all impair the person as a pilot? In essence, can I truthfully answer "no" to a disorder, for something for which I was injured?
You probably need to explore the terms "disorder" and "condition,"

"Mostly a healed condition is perhaps a little more concerning."

I should imagine, it's either healled, or not......in terms of functionality.

I broke my toe when I was 11, it still throbs now and again. In my terms of reference, I consider myself healled.
