Trauma is defined as an injury caused by an external source, and can often be life-threatening. In the field of orthopedic medicine, trauma or orthopedic trauma is categorized as a severe injury to the elements of the musculoskeletal system (muscles, joints, ligaments, bones, and soft tissue). These trauma injuries are often the result of a sudden accident, like a fall, that requires immediate medical attention. While these injuries are not all life-threatening, they are life-altering. Therefore, the help of an orthopedic surgeon is crucial.

According to the severity of the fracture, specialists will decide on the type of treatment given. Open and closed treatments are two wide categories of types of methods. Open treatment involves surgical dealings with the broken bone ends to fix them in place. Close treatment is a method where the practitioner applies gentle pressure on the bone with the skin and muscles left intact. Hence, no incursions are made or the bone is not seen by the surgeon. Closed methods are rarely implemented on patients because the success rate is low when compared to surgical treatments.

Benefits of surgery include:

  • Increased mobility and movement
  • Improved quality of life, ability to return to normal activities
  • Enables you to sleep without pain
