Broken Bones: How to Tell If a Bone Is Broken or Just Bruised

It can be tricky to know if an injury is a broken bone or just a bruise. A broken bone, or fracture, means the bone's continuity is disrupted, while a bruise is damage to the soft tissue. Knowing the difference is crucial for proper treatment.

How to Identify a Fracture:

Pain: Persistent or severe pain at the injury site.

Swelling: The area may be swollen and tender.

Bruising: Discoloration around the injury.

Deformity: The area may look distorted.

Difficulty Moving: Pain or inability to move the affected part.

What to Do: If you suspect a fracture, seek medical attention immediately. Minor fractures may need rest and ice, while severe cases might require surgery.

Understanding the top 10 common injuries in truck accidents and how to treat them can aid in faster recovery and better management of these traumatic events. This comprehensive guide will delve into these injuries, providing detailed insights on symptoms and treatments.

[phanfictioncatalogue]

(TW) Broken Bones Masterlist

Brittle - phandabbydosey

Summary: Told from the perspective of a doctor observing Dan’s strangely frequent trips to A&E, always for broken bones. His relationship with Phil seems perfect, but could there be a more sinister cause underlying Dan’s injuries? Or is it something else entirely?

Prevent Broken Bones

I had an accident before, lucky to survive with no broken bones. However, I would still like to talk about the recovery period and maintenance of fractures caused by different age groups. The recovery time for fractures varies depending on the age group, but typically takes several weeks to a few months. Here are some methods to maintain bone health and promote fracture healing, which I hope…

The Turkish approach to cycle safety… my darling @arzumarsh has a traditional notion of protection - the glass ‘bead’ against the evil eye 🧿 I certainly will continue to wear a bicycle helmet 🪖 be lit up like a Christmas tree, and invest in some Schwalbe Winter tyres with studs for the icy weather, once the plaster cast comes off. But my angel 😇 hangs a nazar boncuğu 🧿 above my @bromptonbicycle to ward off misfortune… and who’s to say it isn’t effective? Tradition is a powerful force! . . #brompton #bromptonbicycle #bromptonp6r #madeforcities #madeforadventures #bikecrash #brokenbones #tradition #nazarboncuğu #avertevileyes #recoveryride #photobyadrianrmarsh (at Baku, Azerbaijan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CngNNOhoCLI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

And now for a different kind of photography project… An X-ray of my arm! In the early hours of 10 December I was cycling home from a Christmas fancy dress party at Plunge prop-makers (where I sometimes work). I slid on the frosty road, my bike slipped out from underneath me, and I fell straight onto my elbow. I found myself lying on the frozen tarmac, writhing in pain, unable to get up. Eventually a neighbour heard me swearing and shouting for help, and called 999. The operator told him an ambulance would take up to two hours to arrive. This was in the run-up to Christmas, when many of our key public services were striking for acceptable pay and working conditions, against government intransigence and privatisation. I was worried I’d succumb to hypothermia before medical aid arrived, so I got my neighbour to help me up and back home. A friend kindly came over around 5am and drove me to A&E. The initial diagnosis was that my arm was badly sprained, so I wasn’t very gentle with it for the first two weeks. It flared up on Christmas Eve, after I hauled baggage by train to my parents. Another trip to A&E, and another X-ray, revealed two “fat pads” either side of my humerus (dark patches left and right of the upright bone in the photo here) – indicative of an unseen minor fracture around my elbow joint. I was given a better sling and painkillers, told to be gentle with it, and it’s finally on the mend! However, I still can’t bend my arm, lift heavy loads, or cycle/drive, so I’m getting quite frustrated with my immobility. Lucky it’s my left arm, I suppose, although it’s surprising how much you need your non-dominant limbs! Getting there… Thank you NHS, f*** you Tories.
