HIP FRACTURES

A hip fracture happens when the upper part of the thighbone (femur) breaks. The injury usually results from a fall or car accident. Hip fractures are more common in older people because bones weaken and become more brittle with age

  • sports injuries
  • Minor fall or from twisting

SYMPTOMS

  • Pain
  • Limited mobility
  • Bruising

DIAGNOSIS

Hip fracture treatment depends on your age, overall health and type of injury. Most hip fractures require surgery within a day or two after the injury.
