Best Answer

- If the fracture is open (the bone is breaking out through your skin) then yes, you should go to emergency for fast surgery.

- If you have broken your femur (really big bone in your thigh) then you have probably been in a bad accident with major trauma, so there are probably many reasons it is an emergency.

- For a simple closed fracture (no bone sticking through the skin) of your leg below the knee, it is likely not going to need surgery, just a cast, but you should still go to the emergency room of your local hospital.
