Fracture Repair

Fracture repair involves a medical process to heal broken bones. When a bone fractures, the body initiates healing by forming a blood clot around the break. A surgeon may realign the bones using casting, splints, or sometimes surgery with pins or screws to hold the pieces in place. Over time, new bone tissue grows, bridging the break. The healing process typically takes weeks to months, depending on the severity. Proper immobilization and sometimes physical therapy ensure the bone regains strength and function effectively.
