Your bones are designed for getting fractured. They unite readily, specially in case of children. Muscles also heal fast when stitched well. You are unfortunate in that the nerve cells heal poorly or do not heal at all. But then the nerve damage is rather uncommon in clinical practice, except in few instances.
