Types of Bone Fractures and Treatment. A fracture is a broken bone. These types of injuries occur when there is physical force exerted on the bone. Broken bones are common during childhood. Also, as you age, your bones become more stiff and delicate and you are more susceptible to fractures.

Lacerations: Wounds that are produced by the tearing of body tissue. This type of wound can be a tear that is jagged, torn or irregular. A bone fracture that breaks the skin can be classified as a laceration. A laceration is often contaminated with bacteria or debris from whatever caused the cut or tear.

Open or compound fracture - the bone is broken and punctures the skin. The bone may or may not be visible at the punctured site. 3. Transverse fracture - The fractured bone is at right angles to long axis of the bone. 4. Comminuted fracture - The fracture is in three or more bone fragments.

Trauma Wound Basics. A trauma wound is a severe break or injury in the soft tissue of the skin. Trauma wounds may include abrasions, lacerations, crush wounds, penetration and puncture wounds. Trauma wounds can be injuries resulting from accidents or acts of violence and can worsen and become infected quickly if not treated appropriately.

If the bone is in many pieces, it is called a comminuted fracture. In a non-displaced fracture, the bone cracks either part or all of the way through, but does move and maintains its proper alignment. A closed fracture is when the bone breaks but there is no puncture or open wound in the skin.

A fracture is a partial or complete break in the bone. There are many different types of fractures. Bone fractures are often caused by falls, trauma, or as a result of a direct blow or kick to the body. Overuse or repetitive motions can cause stress fractures.

An open fracture is one in which the bone breaks through the skin; it may then recede back into the wound and not be visible through the skin. This is an important difference from a closed fracture because with an open fracture there is a risk of a deep bone infection. Some fracture types are: 1  A Greenstick fracture is an incomplete fracture in which the bone is bent. This type occurs most often in children. 2  A transverse fracture is when the broken piece of bone is at a right angle to the bone's axis. 3  An oblique fracture is when the break has a curved or sloped pattern.

Types of Fractures. The severity of a fracture depends on the force that caused the injury. If the bone’s breaking point is only slightly exceeded, the bone may crack rather than completely break. If the force is severe, such as in a motor vehicle accident, the bone may shatter.

Fractures may be classified as: 1. Closed or simple fracture - the bone is broken but does not puncture the skin. 2. Open or compound fracture - the bone is broken and punctures the skin. 3. Transverse fracture - The fractured bone is at right angles to long axis of the bone.
