Bone Fracture Attorney

If you are involved in an accident and it results in broken bones, and/or related personal injuries it could have long term consequences for you as the injured victim. A broken bone can result in very painful medical treatment, and in some cases even surgery is required to insert pins or plates to repair the injury. 

When your bone breaks it typically starts with a bend and snaps due to pressure. Some of the most common types of accidents that result in broken bones are auto accidents. 

Some of the different types of broken bones are as follows:

• Complete fracture

• Hairline fracture

• Greenstick fracture

• Single fracture

• Comminuted fracture

• Stress Fracture

• Bowing fracture

• Open fracture

• Transverse fracture

• Oblique fracture

• Impacted fracture

• Pathologic fracture

• Displaced fracture

If you were involved in an accident and think you have a broken or fractured bone, you should immediately seek medical care. A break can have devastating effects on your life and without proper medical care it can quickly escalate into something worse. An experienced personal injury lawyer will be familiar with the types of treatment associated with these injuries and can assist you in making sure you are receiving proper care. 

Furthermore, insurance companies often try to limit health care to save money and make the company more profitable at the expense of the injured person. An experienced personal injury attorney can often stop such tactics by insurance companies.  

Common symptoms of a broken bone include:

• Swelling

• Disfigurement

• You heard a snap at the time of the accident

• Immediate bruising and tenderness develops where you think the break occurred

• Hurts when you move, touch, press or put weight on the injured area
