Fractures
A Fracture is a crack or break in the bone.
CAUSES OF FRACTURES:
Direct Force: This is a blow to the body that causes the bone to break at the spot the blow was received. Indirect Force: This, for example, happens when you fall and land on your hands but a force travels up and breaks your collar bone (Clavicle).
