Understanding Fractures & Trauma
A fracture is a break in the bone that may range from a simple crack to a complete break involving displacement. Trauma surgery focuses on treating severe injuries affecting bones, joints, and surrounding tissues.
Common types of fractures and injuries include:
- Simple fractures: Clean breaks without damage to surrounding tissue
- Compound fractures: Bone breaks through the skin, increasing infection risk
- Comminuted fractures: Bone shatters into multiple pieces
- Dislocations: Bones forced out of their normal joint position
- Multiple injuries: Complex trauma involving several bones or joints
Signs You Should Seek Help
Seek immediate orthopedic evaluation if you experience:
- Sudden, severe pain after an accident or fall
- Visible deformity or swelling around the injured area
- Inability to move or bear weight on the affected limb
- Bone protruding through the skin
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness following injury
- Persistent pain that does not improve with rest or first aid
How Westminster Treats Fractures & Trauma
Our specialists use a structured approach to stabilize, repair, and restore function. Treatment options include:
- Emergency stabilization: Splints, casts, or traction to immobilize the fracture
- Closed reduction: Realignment of bones without surgery
- Internal fixation: Surgical placement of plates, screws, or rods to stabilize bones
- External fixation: Frames applied outside the body to hold bones in place while healing
- Joint reconstruction: When trauma affects surrounding joints and cartilage
- Rehabilitation programs: Physiotherapy to rebuild strength, mobility, and balance after healing
Every plan is customized, balancing rapid recovery with long-term function and stability.
