Fractures In General (Visit this link)
By David Nelson MD Fractures (broken bones) are a fascinating subject. Maybe that's why I am an orthopedist! There has been a lot of research into fractures, so we know a lot about them. For instance, did you know that bones are the only tissue in the body that does not heal with scar? Skin heals with scar tissue, liver lacerations heal with scar, heart muscle heals with scar. Only bone heals with its original tissue, bone! Read on to find out more about your fracture. Remember, patient education is one of the most important things that I do, and it is the way you can best help yourself.
