What are the three types of bone injuries?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

The question is ambiguous. I'm not sure what you're referring to but bones can be fractured, cancerous, brittle from osteoporosis, can grow abnormally and a bunch of other things.

I think you might be referring to the types of fractures. Which are

- Simple Fracture

- Compound Fracture

- Stress Fracture

Answer 3

Simple Fracture

According to Chester College, a simple bone fracture, also called a closed fracture, occurs when the bone is broken but the broken edge of the bone does not penetrate the skin. If the injury is in the back, neck or head, you should not attempt to move the patient; instead contact emergency personnel. If you suspect a simple fracture in a limb, immobilize the limb and seek medical attention. A simple fracture is typically treated by immobilizing the limb in a cast for an extended period of time.

Compound Fracture

A compound or open fracture occurs when the bone penetrates the skin, whether the bone remains outside the skin or not. In the case of a compound fracture, you should seek emergency aid and not try to move or stabilize the bone, as complications may occur. A compound fracture may require surgery, with or without metal pins being inserted to secure the bone edges; a cast is then applied to allow the bone time to heal.

Stress Fracture

A stress fracture typically occurs when a bone is subjected to prolonged force or repeated impact, resulting in a hairline crack or multiple tiny fractures in the bone. This type of fracture is common in sports, such as running, when the foot bones are subjected to repeated stress. A stress fracture may be mistaken for a bad sprain, especially in the foot or ankle.

Answer 4

Most commonly, bone fractures fall into four categories: closed fractures, open fractures, multi-fragmentary fractures, and compression fractures.

There are other types of fractures that denote more specific breaks like linear fractures, transverse fractures, oblique fractures, spiral fractures, compacted fractures, and H-Lewis fractures.

Answer 7

The three types of bone injuries are fractures (breaks in the bone), dislocations (bone ends are forced out of normal position), and sprains (injuries to ligaments that connect bones).
