Uncertainty is probably the first thing that comes to mind after your doctor tells you that you must have a new bone fracture. Yes, you are so puzzled and you may have a lot of what, why and how is this matter. What is bone break? How can you help? Why did the osteopath or your trusted osteopath suggest it to you? It is painful? Am I going to be better after that? These are the questions that reverberate in your mind, but you should keep an open mind about it because surely your doctor knows what is best for you.
In most cases, the new bone fracture is called a fracture reduction or replacement of a broken bone. This is basically a treatment that is done by breaking up the fractured area to fix the problem. Of course, you cannot re-break a bone that has never been broken before. It is important to understand that once a bone has been broken, it will be stronger when it heals.
Anyone with a history of bone fractures can undergo a new bone fracture depending on their medical history. Yes, it is possible to break a bone again, however it is not that easy to do. A doctor must consider several things before doing so. Since bone healing occurs naturally over time, an underlying disease may appear after a year or so. This means that even if you think you are cured after the cast is removed, before long your doctor may suggest that you break the bone again. However, this does not usually happen.
Do not threaten yourself with the intuition that breaking up again is painful. If your doctor advised you this type of bone treatment, he will surely find a way for you not to feel the pain.
Re-breaking is simply realigning the bone to its proper position to fix the problem and restore bone health. Among the reasons why a person needs to re-break the bone is due to malunion or non-union of the bones. This problem commonly occurs in adults and people who have had a stern bone fracture before. The medical treatment process for this type of bone problem is too complicated. In order for you to fully understand the treatment process, your doctor or surgeon must carefully discuss and explain every detail of the recovery process. Once you are comfortable and understand the risks and benefits, you will see that the recovery process is aimed at improving the function of your body. If you still have more questions, ask your trusted osteopath.
