A fracture is a complete or incomplete break in a bone resulting from the application of excessive force.
This condition is commonly known as an avulsion fracture, where a small piece of bone breaks off due to the pull of a tendon or ligament. In the case of the hip bone, it may be referred to as an avulsion fracture of the greater trochanter. Treatment typically involves rest, immobilization, and sometimes surgery.
Blood vessels supply the bone with nutrients and carry food and oxygen to the bone cells. When a bone breaks, blood vessels at the site of the fracture help in the healing process by delivering the necessary nutrients for bone repair.
Osteoclasts are the cells responsible for breaking down bone tissue in a process known as bone resorption. They secrete acid and enzymes that degrade the bone matrix, allowing for the remodelling and repair of bones.
The most likely cause of weak and easily broken bones in this person is a decrease in bone density, known as osteoporosis. This condition typically affects the trabecular (spongy) bone tissue within the bones, making them more fragile and susceptible to fractures.
When a bone breaks, the body initiates a process called bone remodeling. Osteoclasts are cells that break down and remove the damaged bone tissue, while osteoblasts come in to build new bone tissue to repair the fracture. This process helps to remodel and strengthen the bone at the site of the break.
When a bone breaks, it is called a fracture.
no ... it is a very rare case ... in most cases a bone such as femur breaks into 2 pieces ... the position of the fracture controls the condition of fracture
No , not all of them but most of them are bone breaks

There is a bone in the nose and that is what breaks. See the link below ( elevating a fractured nose)
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.
Inflammation of the bones and bone marrow is known as osteomyelitis. This is a severe infection that may require long-term treatment.
A pathologic fracture occurs when a weakened bone breaks under normal strain.
