Bone Fractures Rachel Bady  Bio 120 Chapter Four
Bone Fractures A bone fracture (sometimes abbreviated FRX or Fx, Fx, or #) is a medical condition in which there is a break in the continuity of the bone. A bone fracture can be the result of high force impact or stress, or trivial injury as a result of certain medical conditions that weaken the bones, such as osteoporosis, bone cancer, or osteogenesis imperfecta, where the fracture is then termed pathological fracture.
Stress Fracture ,[object Object]
Most often it is seen in the lower leg, the shin bone (tibia), or foot. Athletes are at risk the most, because they have repeated footfalls on hard surfaces. Tennis players, basketball players, jumpers, and gymnasts are typically at risk.
A March fracture is the name given to a stress fracture of the metatarsal or long bones of the foot. (It is named because it often occurs in soldiers who are required to march long distances.,[object Object]

  • 8. As with most types of wrist fractures a fall is the primary cause of a colles’ fracture. The impact of the fall and bodyweight causes the radius to buckle.
  • 9. The young and elderly are particularly susceptible to this fracture as children's bones are soft and elderly patients bones tend to be brittle. In the elderly a condition called osteoporosis can often lead to a colles’ fracture.
