Fractures, or broken bones, occur when the force exerted on a bone is stronger than the bone itself. According to Web MD, the average person will suffer two fractures in a lifetime. If you have suffered a fracture in an accident that was someone else’s fault, it is in your best interests to consult with a knowledgeable Milwaukee broken bone and fracture attorney. You may be entitled to claim compensation for your injuries.
According to AAOS, the severity of a fracture often depends on the amount of force that caused the bone to break. If the force only slightly exceeds the breaking point of the bone, the bone may be cracked but not broken all the way through. Extreme force, such as the impact of an automobile collision, can cause a bone to shatter.
Bone fractures carry a number of consequences for victims. They can seriously limit mobility or the ability to perform normal tasks. Serious fractures in any part of the body may require surgery and disfiguring facial fractures often require reconstructive surgery. Physical therapy is often needed after a broken bone heals.
