Whats the most dangorous bone to break?
Not really sure but the bones in your toes commonly break and fracture without the sufferer's knowledge.
What is the most frequently broken wrist bone?
The most frequently broken wrist bone is the distal radius, which is the larger of the two forearm bones located on the same side as the thumb. Fractures of the distal radius are commonly known as Colles' fractures.
What is comminuted fracture surgical neck right humerus?
A comminuted fracture of the surgical neck of the right humerus is a fracture where the bone is broken into multiple pieces near the top of the arm bone. Surgery may be needed to realign the bone fragments and stabilize the fracture with plates, screws, or pins to promote proper healing and restore function. Physical therapy is often recommended post-surgery to regain strength and mobility in the arm.
Is The Femur The Most Painful To Break?
Yes, the femur is considered one of the most painful bones to break because it is the largest and strongest bone in the body. A femur fracture can be extremely painful and may require surgical intervention 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.
Which broken bone cause death?
The most dangerous bone to break is the skull.
Whats the most dangorous bone to break?
Not really sure but the bones in your toes commonly break and fracture without the sufferer's knowledge.
What is the difference between a chip fracture of the foot and a hairline fracture?
I'm pretty sure if you have a chip fracture it means that a piece of the bone has been chipped off. A hairline fracture means the bone is broken. However the break is very minor and most likely isn't broken all the way through.
What is a simple bone fracture?
A simple bone fracture is a crack in the bone. Simple bone fractures do not penetrate the skin and are easily healed without a formal cast most of the time.
What is the most frequently broken wrist bone?
The most frequently broken wrist bone is the distal radius, which is the larger of the two forearm bones located on the same side as the thumb. Fractures of the distal radius are commonly known as Colles' fractures.
What is the specific name of a fracture called?
Sometimes, excess pressure is applied to a bone that results in the breaking of the bone, also called a fracture. Fractures are common. Most people suffer from fractures at least once during their lifetime. Children's bones are relatively more flexible and less likely to break. Falls or other accidents that do not cause harm in children can cause complete fractures in older adults. Older adults suffer from fractures more than children because their bones are comparatively brittle.Bone fractures are caused by various reasons. It could be because of a fall from a height, motor accidents and repetitive forces on the bone because of physical activities like running or weightlifting.Different types of bone fractures: -Open Fracture : An open fracture is a fracture where the broken bone is exposed. That is dangerous because of increased chances of infection.Closed Fracture : A closed fracture is a fracture where the bone is broken, but the skin is intact.Simple fracture : The fracture occurs along one line, splitting the bone into two pieces.Multi-fragmentary fracture : In this the bone splits into multiple pieces.Compression Fracture : A compression fracture is a closed fracture that occurs when two or more bones are forced against each other. It commonly occurs to the bones of the spine and may be caused by falling into a standing or sitting position, or a result of advanced osteoporosis.Avulsion Fracture : An avulsion fracture is a closed fracture where a piece of bone is broken off by a sudden, forceful contraction of a muscle. This type of fracture is common in athletes and can occur when muscles are not properly stretched before activity. This fracture can also because of an injury.Impacted Fracture : An impacted fracture is similar to a compression fracture, yet it occurs within the same bone. It is a closed fracture which occurs when pressure is applied to both ends of the bone, causing it to split into two fragments that jam into each other. This type of fracture is common in car accidents and falls.Stress Fracture : It is a common overuse injury. It is most often seen in athletes who run and jump on hard surfaces such as runners, ballet dancers and basketball players.Compression fracture of the spine : It is common in individuals with osteoporosis. Often no identifiable injury causes it. This results in significant pain and disability.Rib fractures : If you experience pain while breathing you probably have a rib fracture. In this condition you also have tenderness and shallow breathing.Complete Fracture : in this the bone fragments separate completely.Incomplete Fracture : in this the bone fragments are still partially joined.Linear Fracture : in this the fracture is parallel to the bone's long axis.Transverse Fracture : in this the fracture is at a right angle to the bone's long axis.Oblique Fracture : in this the fracture is diagonal to a bone's long axis.Spiral Fracture : in this at least one part of the bone has been twisted.Comminuted Fracture : in this the fracture results in several fragments.Compacted Fracture : in this the fracture is caused when bone fragments are driven into each other

Bone fragments into many pieces?
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

What is the difference between fracture and a sprain?
a dislocation is always between two or more articulating joint while a fracture is discontinuation of a bone. physically in fractures there might be change in length of the extremity while they wouldn't be any change in dislocation
What are most common injuries to bones?
particularly the longer bones of the arms and legs is a fracture, or a break in the bone. (A fractured bone and a broken bone are the same thing; one is not worse than the other.) Other common places for fractures are the bones of the wrist, ankle, and kneecap.
Why is compound fracture the most serious injury?
A simple fracture, more accurately called a closed fracture, is a fracture that does not involve a break of the skin. A compound fracture, called an open fracture, is a fracture in which bone fragments cause a break in the skin. These fractures require antibiotics and, in most cases, surgical washout and repair to prevent infection.
