Fractures:
These occur when a bone break.
Causes of bone fractures: When a bone can no longer bear stress or force bone
fractures may occur. Bone fractures can also occur from physical sports, falling,
accidents and trauma. Bone diseases or disorders may cause weakening in the bones.
Types of Bone Fracture:
• Complete or simple fracture: The bone is broken into two but does not pierce
through the skin.
• Comminated fracture: The bone is shattered into many pieces.
• Greenstick fracture or incomplete fracture: A crack occurs in the bone, but it
doesn't break.
• Open or compound fracture: A bone breaks completely and pierces through the
skin.
