Fractures
Fractures refer to the break or crack in a bone, commonly resulting from trauma like falls or accidents. Symptoms of fractures typically include pain, swelling, and inability to move the affected limb. Treatment often involves immobilisation with casts or splints and, in severe cases, surgical intervention to realign the bones.
