Understanding Treatment
- Treatment Options for Fractures :
- Non-Surgical Options : Many simple fractures can be treated with methods like casting or splinting to immobilize the bone, allowing it to heal naturally.
- Surgical Options : More complex fractures, or those that don't heal well with non-surgical methods, may require surgery. This can involve using plates, screws, rods, or pins to hold the broken bone pieces in place while they heal.
