It depends on the bone that was fractured. Treatment for simple closed non-displaced long bone fractures would be immobilisation. Simple fracture of the frontal bone of the skull touching the frontal sinuses would include preventive antibiotics. Simple fracture of a rib would be treated with pain medication. Simple fracture of a vertebra would require a corset. So there is no on single correct answer.

Bone fracture that doesn't break the skin?

A bone fracture that does not break the skin is called a closed fracture. In this type of fracture, the bone is broken but the skin remains intact, which helps to reduce the risk of infection. Treatment usually involves immobilizing the bone with a cast or brace to allow it to heal properly.


What are the three types of bone injuries?

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.


What type of fracture shatters the bone?

A fracture that shatters the bone is called a comminuted fracture. A direct impact can shatter bone into several fragments or pieces. This type of fracture is likely to occur in a road traffic accident.


What you call where bone partially broken?

A bone that is partially broken is typically referred to as a "hairline fracture" or a "stress fracture." These are small cracks in the bone that do not completely break it into two separate pieces. Treatment usually involves rest and immobilization to allow the bone to heal.
