Fractures (broken bones) occur when force applied to bone exceeds its strength, resulting in complete or partial breaks. They commonly result from falls, direct impacts, sports injuries, or in weakened bones, even minor trauma. Types range from simple closed fractures to complex open fractures where bone protrudes through skin. Symptoms include pain, swelling, deformity, bruising, inability to bear weight, and limited movement. Immediate medical attention is crucial to ensure proper alignment during healing, prevent damage to surrounding tissues, reduce complication risks, and manage pain. Diagnosis requires X-rays, sometimes supplemented by CT or MRI for complex fractures. Treatment depends on fracture type, location, and severity, including immobilization with casts or splints, closed reduction (manual realignment), or surgical intervention with internal fixation (plates, screws, rods) for displaced or unstable fractures. Recovery involves immobilization (typically 4-8 weeks), followed by rehabilitation to restore strength and range of motion. Mexican orthopedic care often costs 50-75% less than equivalent US treatment while maintaining high standards, with many specialists internationally trained and experienced in treating tourists' fractures from activities like surfing, horseback riding, and adventure sports.
