What is a fracture?

A fracture and a broken bone are the one and the same. There are two different types of fractures. An open fracture results in a tear in the skin and may have a protruding bone. A closed fracture is when the fractured bone remains under the skin. During an accident a person may experience a fracture, as well as other injuries, sometimes making the prognosis difficult to determine. Each year in the United States there are approximately 6.8 million fractures that require medical attention. The experienced New York bone fracture injury attorneys at Wingate, Russotti & Shapiro will provide you with superior representation and quality legal advice.

Indications of a possible fracture include:

• A snapping sound heard during the injury
• A snap felt during the injury
• Movement where there is not typically a joint on the body
• A bone has punctured through the skin
• Severe pain of the injured area
• Increasing pain in the injured area
• Swelling and/or bruising
• A joint or limb that is noticeably out of place
• Inability to walk on or move injured body part
• Loss of feeling and/or tingling of the injured area

If you suffer a bone injury, medical treatment is necessary to determine the severity of the injury and to assess the body for any other ailments. Recovery may take a few weeks to a few months for a full recovery, depending on the location of the injury and the age and health of the injured person.
