The three basic types of bone fractures:
- Green stick fracture: A fracture when a bone is cracked or slightly bent but, not entirely broken. This can cause a lot of pain to the person. This can easily be treated and ready to use if the person is given a cast.
- Compound fracture: This is a fracture when the bone is totally broken and, it also pierces the skin. These most oftenely involve a replacement surgery.
- Complete fractures: Also fractures that involve the whole bone broken but, it doesn't pierce the skin. This also involves replacement surgery.
