A fracture is a break in a bone. Fractures often occur due to trauma caused by sports injuries, road accidents and falls. But they can also be caused by insufficient bone density, osteoporosis or pathologies based on bone weakening.
🔹 In cases where you suspect a fracture, you should definitely seek medical help. In some cases, surgical intervention may also be necessary.
🔹Among the most common symptoms of fractures are pain, swelling and deformity. A bone fracture generally goes through these stages:
-In the beginning, a characteristic noise is heard when the trauma is verified, and then swelling and pain appear in the damaged area.
- The pain increases in case of pressure or touch. The injured part may appear deformed, while in cases of severe fractures the bone protrudes from the skin (exposed fracture).
-Due to the state of shock from the fracture, there may be dizziness, fainting and vomiting.
