Bone Pain and Fractures

Skull fractures take a few months to heal. When fracturing the skull the healing process takes a lot longer than any other fracture, like a fracture in the wrist or foot. Because of how much was damage and depending on the area of the fracture and the extent of the damage, the healing process could take up to a year, and in some cases even longer. Once you fracture your skull the healing process also includes the healing of the brain itself. You can't just fracture the skull and get on with your life. Depending on the force that fractured your skull you can end up with memory loss, brain damage, and other nerve problems.

An Avulsion fracture usually only needs the treatment of resting and icing the fracture followed by exercising and stretching the tendon. Surgery might be needed if the bone fragment and main bone are too far apart to heal naturally.

yes

Breaking your shoulder blade usually is the result of a fall on your back or blunt force trauma to the shoulder blade.

No - it depends on when the picture is taken (before or after swelling has been reduced) and the angle of the picture. If the fracture is small enough and in a spot not covered by the picture, it can easily be missed on a first pass. Swelling with stress fractures can often mask it as well, and it's common for doctors to let the swelling go down some before pictures are taken. X-rays are taken by placing the patient in standard positions for the best viewing angle of the bone being X-rayed; however, that doesn't always mean it's the optimum angle for all injuries.

The only way to know is if the pain and swelling continue past the first week. If the pain and swelling continue past the first week and it's still bruised, they can take another X-ray with contrast dye if needed to help illuminate the area of the potential fracture to help it show up better.

Usually a piece of metal that goes under a finger and is held in place with tape to keep the finger stable while it heals from an injury.

Break it

If it's healed and your doctor has cleared you, no.

in the first and second metatarsal.

Yes of course they are. At one week it is still the beginning of the process of healing time but yes, at this point your body is at work and your foot bones should be ready to put pressure on them after about three weeks with probably fracture boot. Add pressure/weight to your fractured foot every day and build up that pressure/weight every day as i had said before. But always follow what your regular doctor or your orthopedic tells you to do.

What is it called when you remove debris from a wound, fracture, or burn

When an injury prevents your full use of one or the other limb (leg).

Not really. Poor posture, poor footwear, and improper biomechanics cause hip problems. A hard bed can aggravate it.

Try sleeping on your side with a pillow between your legs to reduce pressure on your pelvic bones. You can also try a pelvic stabilizer belt to reduce pain and retrain the muscles that stabilize your pelvis.

The amount of time a person needs to take off of work after a hairline fracture depends on the location of the fracture and whether or not surgery was required. The average time a person requires off of work is 4-6 weeks.

You may mean compound fracture in which the bone crushes in on it do to dual pressure. An example would be falling really hard on your knee, the pressure then counterpressured by the femur results in the bones crushing in on itself. (Or put your fists together & push. If enough pressure is applicated it could result of the crushing of the knuckles.)

a sprain means that you have jarred the injured body part. A fracture is when you dent or break the bone. A few weeks ago I buckle fractured my arm and it was broken on the inside of my bone not the outside.

dude, you must have been drunk, or hi or something. Answer It is possible to break the Talus bone and not realize it and this could be caused from anything from being sports related (football, baseball) or excessive exercise. Many people have broken a bone somewhere in their body and have not realized it. Be thankful!

If there is no other chest or abdominal injury, and the patient is awake and conscious there is no need to worry about the airway

Two people use a little finger to hold the wishbone (which should have been dried). On both pulling, the person with the longest piece of the wishbone is granted a wish (but must never reveal the wish to anyone!).

I think so. Hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A broken bone is no limit for your eating habits. Only reasonI can think of if if it's a bad break that might have to be operated. In that case you might be forbidden to eat until after the surgery.

during the plaster, limb has no movement which restricts proper blood flow and stiffens the muscle..thus after plaster removal the muscles take a few days or weeks to recover to its original movements and blood flow which causes pain and swelling for that time period coz of immediate rush of blood and pressure exerted to it after a long time.. thus a person should exercise the leg a bit everyday..but shouldn't overdo it.

"Heal naturally" is the only way any injury heals. Sometimes medical treatment will provide assistance to the body, but everything that heals, heals naturally. So the answer is yes. However, you need to be aware of the possible complications. If the splint is put on wrong, the bones might heal at the wrong angle, and the finger will never be the same as it was. Also, with out medical assistance, infection could set in, and cause a much worse problem.
