Top 5 Bone Fractures
Most people have experienced some kind of bone fracture in their lifetime, whether treated or untreated. These can sometimes be in the form of a hairline fracture, or even a major break. Either way, fracturing a bone is no laughing matter, even if it's your funny bone. The top five bone fractures are common among people of all ages, and can cause major problems.
1. The Wrist - This is the most likely point of fracture in the entire human body. Many people experience wrist fracture doing daily activities. They can fall and try to catch themselves, twist it wrong, slam it in a car door, or a variety of other things. Fractures of the wrist can affect the radius, or they can affect the ulna. If not one of these major bones, there are several other bones in the hand that can be part of a wrist fracture, all of which are uncomfortable.
2. The Hip - Hip fractures are common in elderly people, though anyone can get one. Taking a fall on the hip can mean months of recovery, and for some, total hip replacement surgery. A break in the hip affects a person's overall well being, leaving them unable to walk and do everyday chores. So unless laying around on the couch in pain all day is your cup of tea, it is best to avoid this type of fracture.
3. The Ankle - Another highly fracture prone area of the body is the ankle. This rotating joint is a point of pressure for the weight of the entire body. While it is made to withstand a person's weight and more, hitting it wrong or jumping on it incorrectly can lead to some serious cast and crutches time.
4. The Arm - Perhaps one of the most used bones in the body, the arms are our ability to do work, carry things, clean, drive and more. Having a fractured arm can mean feeling less independent in needing help with everyday activities. Once the fracture has healed, muscles have usually degenerated and need to be rebuilt, leaving a feeling of weakness.
5. The Legs - Yes, we walk on them, but the legs are good for so much more. Usually a fractured leg is put in a brace or cast, leaving it straightened and immobile. Crutches can help you get around on a broken leg, but there is no squating down, jumping, running, or lifting allowed. It can also be difficult for a person with a broken leg to dress themselves or shower themselves.
While many fractures are due to carelessness or accidents, a large portion are due to underlying conditions that are completely preventable. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that affects many people of all ages, especially women, around the world. As people age, the bones can begin to weaken and become brittle, causing the slightest thing to result in bone fracture.
