10 Bone Fracture Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #2: Disfigurement
Our skeletons help to form the structure of our bodies. The bones help provide internal support, while the flesh and organs around them help perform the many other important functions. The skeleton has also evolved over millions of years to help provide the balance and support that is so essential to us.
Our bones are usually quite straight, with some exceptions like the ribs and the skull. If a bone is fractured then it can be become broken out of line, making part of it stick out at an angle. This is often clearly visible externally in what is perhaps the most gruesome symptom of a fractured bone.
