Humerus Fractures

A humerus fracture is a break in the upper arm bone, known as the humerus. It can occur due to falls, sports injuries, or accidents. Symptoms typically include pain, swelling, and difficulty moving the arm. Treatment often involves rest, pain management, and sometimes the use of a splint or cast. In more severe cases, surgery may be required to reposition the bone fragments. Recovery can take several weeks to months, depending on the fracture's severity. Proper rehabilitation is essential for restoring strength and mobility in the arm.
