A broken bone is a bone that has suffered stress. Such stress could lead to several types of fractures.
the injuries like fractures,bone displacement,bone breakage,etc.
Two types of bone breaks are fractures and complete breaks. Fractures are just cracks in the bone, but complete breaks are when the bone literally is broken in two pieces. You've shattered the bone if it's broken in more that two pieces.
Compression fractures are most common along the spine involving the vertebrae. This is when a bone in the spine collapses and is most commonly found in the thoracic area of the spine.

Bone cysts cause fractures and damage to bone tissue
There are two main catorgories of fractures. Complete and incomplete. A complete fracture is what we would usually refer to as a break (but that is not a medical term). An incomplete fracture is a hairline fracture, when the bone is cracked or patially broken. Another incomplete fracture is a greenstick, when the bone is broken on one side causing it to bend. Some coplete fractures are the simple fracture, where the bone is broken into two, straight across. Then the oblique fracture is very similar except it is broken on an angle. The spiral fracture is broken on an angle the twisted. Compound fracture is when the bone breaks through the skin. The comminuted fracture is a multi-fragmentary fracture.

No , not all of them but most of them are bone breaks
Yes, elderly people are more likely to get bone fractures due to age-related factors such as decreased bone density, muscle weakness, and balance issues. Additionally, conditions like osteoporosis can further increase the risk of fractures in older individuals.
