Upper and lower arms may be broken. Treatment is roughly similar. There are several degrees of broken arm ranging from greenstick fracture where the bone is only partly broken through compound fractures where several bones are broken o a bone is broken into several pieces, to a broken bone which pierces the skin.
In all cases it is necessary to align the broken sections back to a close approximation of their original orientation.
The doctor must also ensure that any cut or torn blood vessels are repaired. Sometimes muscles are severed and must be surgically repaired.
The more serious fractures may require plates and screws to be inserted into the bone to hold it in position.
The arm is immobilized with a sling, cast or by pins piercing the flesh into the bone and bolted into position.
Healing takes place naturally with new bone growth between the broken sections. This takes several weeks
