Question
What is dislocation and fracture of a bone? What precaution should one take when one gets a fracture?
✓

Answer

Dislocation and fracture: Any careless, sudden movement— a jump, fall or knock— may cause an injury to the skeleton. It may be a dislocation or a fracture. In case of dislocation the bones at the joint are dislodged from their normal position. The ligaments may be torn apart or injured causing pain and swelling.

A fracture is a break in the bone. The break may be of a hair line crack or serious break in one or more points. Fracture also causes pain and swelling. In all these cases, the patient should soon be taken to a doctor or a hospital.
  • Never try to reset the bones.
  • Place the injured part in a comfortable position.
  • Care should be taken to avoid jerk or movement of the injured part.
