The majority of fractures are treated in a manner that immobilizes the bone so it can heal naturally. Such immobilization is accomplished with a cast, a splint, a soft brace, or possibly even a boot. In certain cases, the broken bone has to be set in place or returned to alignment as part of your fracture care.
Personalized fracture treatment.
Our fracture care specialists understand the subtle nuances of fracture setting that help a compromised bone heal properly. Our team will also determine whether surgery is necessary to keep the bone in position. The best treatment for your unique fracture hinges on the type of fracture as well as the specific bone or bones fractured. Fracture correction can occur through several different approaches:
- Traction alignment
- Casting and bracing
- Setting the bone back into alignment
- External fixation with metal pins and wires
