Overview

What it is

A fracture is a broken bone — including the hairline cracks that are easy to dismiss as a bad bruise. Wrists, ankles, fingers, and collarbones take the most falls and collisions. An accurate x-ray diagnosis helps determine proper immobilization and the right follow-up, all of which can happen in a single urgent care visit.
