BONE FRACTURES

- A bone fracture is the medical term used when a bone is cracked or broken. Any bone fracture requires prompt treatment and should be examined by a medical professional. A doctor can realign and set a broken bone to let it heal properly. Improper healing of a fracture can result in a misaligned bone or an infection. Going without treatment can also cause permanent damage to nerves or muscle tissue.
Bone fractures can be described by several terms. A fracture can be opened or closed. These can also be called compound or simple fractures respectively. An open fracture is one in which the bone breaks though the skin, or a deep wound exposes the bone. Meanwhile, a closed fracture does not break the skin. It must be noted that, by definition, an open fracture is infected. Therefore, it is important to get medical care immediately.
The wound needs to be surgically cleaned by a medical professional, which involves debridement (removal of foreign contaminants and diseased tissue). Then, the bone is stabilized using implanted rods and screws, and the wound closed with stitches. A closed fracture can still damage surrounding soft tissue, and this results in fracture blisters. These can form within two days if the injury is left untreated. Typically, the injured area is immobilized with a cast.
Fractures can also be partial or complete, which is exactly what it sounds like. A partial fracture is an incomplete break, while a complete fracture means the bone is separated into 2+ pieces. Partial fractures are less serious and typically you will just need a splint or a cast. Complete fractures can be further classified according to the position of the breakage as transverse, oblique, longitudinal, or comminuted. A transverse fracture is one in which the break is straight across the bone perpendicular to its long axis. An oblique fracture is one where the break is diagonal. A longitudinal fracture is one where the break is along the bone’s long axis. A comminuted fracture is one in which the bone breaks into more than two pieces and typically occurs due to a severe accident.
Fractures can also be stable or displaced. With a stable fracture, also called a non-displaced fracture, the bone’s broken ends line up - they have not shifted out of place. However, with a displaced fracture, there is a gap between the bone’s broken ends, and repair may require surgery.
Typically, bone fractures result from strong force, such as from a fall. Sometimes, they can result from repeated stress. Stress fractures occur when tiny breaks form from repeated stress on a specific bone. These fractures are hard to spot on an x-ray. These are more common in athletes due to constant training.
Some fractures can also result from medical conditions that weaken bones, which include osteoporosis, some cancers, or brittle bone diseases. Fractures which occur as a result of medical conditions are known as pathological fractures. The older we get, the less force our bones can withstand. For women, calcium regulation becomes more difficult after menopause, since there is a drop in estrogen, which regulates a woman’s calcium. Osteoporosis results in an increased risk of fractures, with the most common being compression factures. Compression fractures can occur in the spinal column, resulting in vertebrae collapsing.
Children’s bones are different from adult ones. For one, they have growth plates, which are made of cartilage and allow bones to lengthen until the individual reaches their full height, at which point they are replaced by bone. Fracture of a bone plate can cause the bone to stop growing or to grow crookedly. Children’s bones are also more elastic, so fractures tend to be different. A greenstick fracture occurs almost exclusively in children. This occurs because children’s bones are soft and flexible, and able to bend more than adult bone, so they can break on just one side of the bone. Children are also more likely to get torus, or buckle fractures, in which the bone buckles rather than breaks.
Other types of fractures are spiral or torsion fractures (occur when a bone is twisted apart) and avulsion fractures (occur when a fragment of bone is separated from the main mass).
Depended on the fracture's location and severity, symptoms may include pain, bruising, swelling, and bleeding. The individual may be unable to put weight on the injury or move the area. There may be angulation, in which the area is bent at an abnormal angle. If a large bone (e.g. pelvis or femur) is fractured, the individual may be dizzy, pale and nauseous.
Complications of a bone fracture can include malunion (fracture heals in the wrong position). In the case of an open fracture, an individual can develop chronic osteomyelitis (persistent infection of the bone or bone marrow). Another potential complication is avascular necrosis (bone death - this occurs when a bone loses its blood supply and dies). In children, a fracture affecting a growth plate can result in a deformity.
Best ending: I never broke a bone in my life lol.
Same
Same but I almost did when I did wrestling in high school.
Same
Just don't this is so pain full I'm still on bed rest just passed the critical surgery , broked my left leg 🤌🏻🥲

Great knowledge 👌
Thank you mister!
Thank you 🌟
Thanks a lot 🙏🙏🙏
Very nice explanation ❤
superb and amazing
Thank you Sir.
Great informative
This helps me alot thank you so much
I’m not even in uni and I find this interesting I am def looking into it
2.The video talks about different types of fractures. A fracture is a medical term in which a bone cracks or breaks. The symptoms of a fracture are pain, swelling and bleeding.It is necessary to consult a doctor. The doctor will do an X-ray and help cure the fracture.
In conclusion, I would like to say that if the bones do not heal properly, complications may occur
That comminuted fracture example is accurate 😂as I fell off a horse and hit a fence post and have a comminuted non displaced distal radius fracture, fracture at the base of my 5th metacarpal and a capitate fracture. None of these fractures were picked up with x2 x rays-one at the hospital and one at the fracture clinic. It wasn't until I saw my GP ( a few weeks after my fall)who ordered a MRI that they well and truly showed up
no way girls dont get fracture
Great 👍🩺❤️
I play baseball. I just so happened to slide wrong and broke my leg. It was a spiral fracture to my left tibia. The hospital sucked and they waited until the very last moment they could (even with parents written and verbal consent) to give me any kind of pain meds. And to add on to it all, they guy wheeling me out runs me, freshly broken bone first, into a concrete wall. Good times. Missed a baseball season , worth it for the stories though.
I just broke my tibia and fibula and am sadly out for the baseball season too. Games haven’t even started yet.
Nice 😁😁 video
Awesome
About a year ago I was in an accident while driving a golf cart through my neighborhood, I was ejected into the street.
I had never broken anything before so I really didn't know if anything was in fact broken.
My left arm was dark purple and swollen for a few weeks with low mobility. I have not to this day went to see a doctor, but im sure there's still damage and I'm starting to feel it's long term effects when I'm lugging kegs my left arm hurts and I get reduced Mobility.
Seek many doctors I broke clavicle a year ago and the doctor said it will heal by it self a year later I’m still seeing different doctor for it
Very very nice
my school book says there is only 5 types of fracture yet there are over 12 lol
I’m high as fuck and started wondering how bones break and shit, I regret this
This is so upsetting 😭
Hi sir, srry for asking u this, is that what the fracture looked like?
Please make it more for kids
Do impacted fractures need surgery?
👍👍
When the bone was healed,,can it achive its normal strenght before?
I’m recovering from a torsion fracture and oblique fracture both on my tibia but the doctors were surprised that I didn’t need surgery and why it was stable. Am I just rlly lucky given the situation?
Nice
❤️❤️❤️
I just got a fracture in my leg and it's an open fracture. I need help
Longitudinal surgery
What happens if you break your born twice? Do they cut your arm? That’s what i was told as a kid
My son has broken his right arm three times! Each time has been set and cast like the first, no surgeries required, thank God!
A fracture means one of 3 things, you hit your body part and it fractured, or you have diabetes or osteoporosis. Take a fracture very seriously as it can alert you to more serious issues.
I'm just waiting for someone to make a Deku joke
This video talks about bone fractures and what types of fractures exist.
It is said in detail that fractures can be open and closed.
If the bone is open, it can come out through the skin, the resulting wound may be infected, so the doctor must clean the wound, as well as stabilize the fracture with screws and rods and then sew up the wound.
closed ones can damage the surrounding tissues. The damaged area is also immobilized. Fractures can also be partial or complete. Partial ones are less serious. complete fractures are also divided into transverse, mandatory, longitudinal or kamino-comminuted.
And fractures can also be stable, displaced and stressful.
in conclusion, I would like to say that there are also pathological fractures that occur as a result of the disease. But children most often have fractures of the green wand
How to recover fast from left leg joint ankle fracture.....🙏
Bone age Xray video plzz
I never broke a bone in my life LOL
Make a song about it
I've recommended Coral Cal Flow capsules to all of my friends and family members. It's a simple way to support overall bone health and prevent future issues.
