Fracture or a break in the bone can result from any injury. There is a pain, swelling and tenderness and there may be a deformity. The injured part should be prevented from moving. Usually, an X-ray is necessary to confirm whether there is a fracture or not. The injured part can be immobilized with a splint. A splint can be ready-made or improvised from any stiff material (stick, ruler, magazine and so on). The splint should be wider than the limb being splinted, and long enough to prevent movements of the joints near the fracture. Bind the splint in place above and below the fracture. If the person has a compound fracture you must take some sterile gauze, put it over the wound and take the patient to the hospital immediately. A compound fracture is more serious, in which broken bone has pierced the skin.
