It takes about 3 weeks to heal a buckle fracture in the wrist.

A greenstick fracture is afracture in a young, soft bone in which the bone bends and partially breaks. The bones become harder(calcified) and more brittle with age, it occurs almost exclusively during infancy and childhood when their bones are soft. The name is by analogy with green wood which similarly breaks on the outside when bent. There are three basic forms of greenstick fracture. In the first a transverse fracture occurs in the cortex, extends into the midportion of the bone and becomes oriented along the longitudinal axis of the bone without disrupting the opposite cortex. The second form is a torus or buckling fracture, caused by impaction. The third is a bow fracture in which the bone becomes curved along its longitudinal axis.

A compound fracture, the worst kind.

Crepitus - one of the signs of a broken bone is a grinding sound when the extremity is moved.

The healing time for a dislocated knee depends on the severity of the injury. Most knee dislocations result in the tearing or rupturing of a tendon. In this case, surgery is most likely necessary. This usually has the longer healing process. The time period is usually about a year ..with the surgery and physical rehabilitation. Full recovery of the knee (return to the previous, strong state) could even take longer. The dislocations that may not require surgery could take 6 months. Again, total recovery could mean more time.

Well it depends... Most likely the answer is no but if it is swollen maybe. Try having a Doctor take a look because if it is broken and you don't properly treat it later things could happen like arthritis.

A typical ankle sprain can take 1-2 weeks for recovery. Depending on the severity of the injury, an ankle injury can take up to 12 weeks to heal. It is recommended to keep the ankle elevated, iced, and keep your weight of the injured ankle.

If you have a torn ligament in your knee, you need to try really hard to not use your knee. It would be wise to go to physical therapy and consider getting in touch with a doctor that can monitor your progress. You may need six to eight weeks of therapy.

We know that every bone of our body is covered fully with muscular tissues , by the time of the breakage of bone the sharp broken edges of the bone surely tear the muscles around it . Thus there is a sudden swelling after the breakage of bone ...

Physical therapy, and the use of crutches! Sometimes surgery might happen. Healing can take up to 8 to 12 weeks. Severe injuries to the pelvis that involves several breaks can be life threatening. Including internal bleeding, and internal organs damage may be involved.

This will depend on what is causing the pain. Most pain is caused by a pulled adductor muscle. For this type of pain rest, ice, compression and elevation are the best immediate treatment and the muscle will recover in one to two weeks. Some times groin pain may be caused by a hernia and this should be checked out by a doctor.

This will vary depending on how bad the break is. Sometimes surgery is required to fix the bones back into place, but other times it might just need a cast. Casts immobilise the arm while the bones heal and they are usually on for about 4 weeks. Other times a splint or brace may be applied. Hope this helps :)

No, you don't need an operation, unless an operation is needed to fix it! What I mean by that is that only if your surgeon recommends an operation to fix a broken fibula should you consider having one. You don't need a joined up fibula to walk or run or do anything that you would normally do, as the fibula normally only carries around 10% of your body weight. Without it and your tibia will bear the weight.

I broke both my tib and fib some years ago, and still have a rod and pin in my tib. But my fibula never heald and still has a gap of around an inch in it. I mountainbike, rugby referee and skydive without any adverse effect.

I have had left flank pain for years. For years it was misdiagnosed as back strain, kidney stones, you name it. What did it turn out to be? Diverticulitis. Don't rule

that out.

she has been in an orthotic outer devise, so farno new bone growth has shown up on the xrays?

Fissures

THAT IS THE ANSWER

Sometimes you can't since hairline fractures aren't usually visible to the eye and may not present with as much acute pain. How quickly it swells and how great the swelling is can be an indicator, although not truly diagnostic. Often a test used is to see if you can use it or move it normally. Unless the break is unusually severe or displaced, there is often nothing done to treat it besides pain control, treating the swelling with cold compresses or ice, taping it to an adjoining finger to keep it from being over used or moving the bones too much, and observing it closely for any signs of displacement, numbness, etc. Do not attempt to tape it yourself since you may tape it in a poor position, trap nerves, or restrict circulation. Have it evaluated at an urgent care center, your primary doctor's office or by a sports trainer or school nurse (if you are an athlete and one is available).

Depends how severe the sprained ankle is. If ligaments are torn and joint unstable it may require surgery

Often, numbness and cold sensations can be experienced with a broken wrist however some of these symptoms can also occur with a sprained wrist so if you suspect a problem get it checked out.
