Stress fractures can be treated by non-surgical, but your have to rest and limited physical activity, that involved foot and ankle. If children or adults return to the activity too quickly, this will cause the fracture to heal more slower than it is suppose to. Other fractures depends on how bad it is.

Why is osteomyelitis more likely to occur after a compound fracture than after a greenstick fracture?

Osteomyelitis is more likely to occur after a compound fracture because a compound fracture exposes the bone and surrounding tissues to external bacteria, creating a direct pathway for infection. In contrast, a greenstick fracture, which is an incomplete fracture common in children, typically involves a bending of the bone without breaking through the skin, thus maintaining a barrier against pathogens. The open nature of compound fractures increases the risk of infection significantly compared to the closed nature of greenstick fractures.

What are the three types of injuries?

Simple FractureAccording to Chester College, a simple bone fracture, also called a closed fracture, occurs when the bone is broken but the broken edge of the bone does not penetrate the skin. If the injury is in the back, neck or head, you should not attempt to move the patient; instead contact emergency personnel. If you suspect a simple fracture in a limb, immobilize the limb and seek medical attention. A simple fracture is typically treated by immobilizing the limb in a cast for an extended period of time.Compound FractureA compound or open fracture occurs when the bone penetrates the skin, whether the bone remains outside the skin or not. In the case of a compound fracture, you should seek emergency aid and not try to move or stabilize the bone, as complications may occur. A compound fracture may require surgery, with or without metal pins being inserted to secure the bone edges; a cast is then applied to allow the bone time to heal.Stress FractureA stress fracture typically occurs when a bone is subjected to prolonged force or repeated impact, resulting in a hairline crack or multiple tiny fractures in the bone. This type of fracture is common in sports, such as running, when the foot bones are subjected to repeated stress. A stress fracture may be mistaken for a bad sprain, especially in the foot or ankle.There are 3 injuries of bones:Sprain,Dislocation,Fracture.

Why is compound fracture the most serious injury?

A simple fracture, more accurately called a closed fracture, is a fracture that does not involve a break of the skin. A compound fracture, called an open fracture, is a fracture in which bone fragments cause a break in the skin. These fractures require antibiotics and, in most cases, surgical washout and repair to prevent infection.


Does an open procedure to repair a fracture mean that the fracture was an open fracture?

No, an open procedure does not necessarily mean that a fracture was an open fracture. An open procedure only means that the fracture pieces could not be adequately stabilized for optimal healing without surgical intervention.No, somrtimes a closed fracture is best treated by surgical or open means. Installing screws or rods or plates may be necessary even though the bone never broke through the skin.


Can a hammer toe be treated without surgery?

If you are able to straighten the toe by pulling on it, then it can be treated without surgery. A podiatrist can use padding or splint the toe to help keep it straight, and a switch to deeper shoes with more room in the toe area will help keep all toes in a more natural position.
