Fractures & recovery

After a broken bone is treated, follow-up helps check healing and plan a safe return to activity.

Overview

Keep records of the injury and treatment for review. A suspected new fracture needs prompt local assessment. Seek emergency care for a deformed limb, an open wound exposing bone or a cold or numb limb after injury.
