Simple fractures• Mostly no bleeding• Pain• Swelling• Discoloration• Loss of power• Irregular movement of that part• may or may not hear sound of bone breaking

Page 6: Fractures MASHEL NASEER. Contents What are fractures? Simple fractures,Compound fractures and complicated fractures Dealing with different types of fractures.

What to do• Calm• Stop movement, immobilize joints, use slings

• check circulation in nails, pulse, color & warmth of that part of body• Use ice-packs to reduce pain

Page 7: Fractures MASHEL NASEER. Contents What are fractures? Simple fractures,Compound fractures and complicated fractures Dealing with different types of fractures.

What not to do• Force to reposition• place effected part in uncomfortable way

Page 8: Fractures MASHEL NASEER. Contents What are fractures? Simple fractures,Compound fractures and complicated fractures Dealing with different types of fractures.

Compound fractures• too much bleeding, broken bone could be seen• sound of breaking bone• discoloration, swelling• unable to move that part

Page 9: Fractures MASHEL NASEER. Contents What are fractures? Simple fractures,Compound fractures and complicated fractures Dealing with different types of fractures.

What to do• Call for help soon• try to stop bleeding• Do not do tight bandage, just immobilize it, protect it so that it will not cause infection• Check circulation• Elevate affected limb above heart to

reduce pain and swelling

Complicated fractures• Broken bone cause damage to any organ• Pain in damaged organ• Difficulty breathing• Coughing out blood• Difficulty or unable to move fingers and toes• Discoloration• Loss of sensation
