BONE INJURY
BONE BREAKS
• The result of high force impact or stress, or trivial injury

BONE BREAK TREATMENT
• Keep the injured bone as still as possible; do not bear any weight on it
• Apply ice
• Keep the area of injury raised
BONE BREAK TREATMENT
• Seek medical care
• Treatment of the break depends on the area and severity of the injury
• The bone may be realigned and supported with a splint, case or brace
• Surgery may be needed
Healing
• Step 1: When a bone fractures, blood vessels are broken too. Blood pours from the vessels and forms a clot around the broken ends of the bone
• Step 2: New bone cells move into the blood clot. As more bone cells are made, the blood clot is gradually replaced by bone
• Step 3: Any old pieces of broken bone which jut out are absorbed into the blood stream, so the repair is smoothed down
BONE DISLOCATION
• When sudden pressure pulls a bone out of its socket at the joint

• Can cause severe pain and deformity of the joint area
• Shoulders, elbows, knees, hips and ankles, fingers and toes
• Treated with a splint after joint is placed again

BONE FRACTURES
• Fractures of the bone are classified in two categories: the simple fracture and the compound fracture, in which the skin is pierced and the flesh and bone are exposed to infection.
SImple fracture
• Commonly occur from a high impact or trauma to the bone
• Defined by a crack in the bone
• Small cracks in the bone are called stress fractures- caused by overuse
Bone fracture
• The symptoms include:
• Out of place limb or joint
• Swelling, bruising or bleeding
• Numbness and tingling
• Limited mobility or inability to move a limb
