Accidents happen and sometimes those accidents result in broken bones. Normally when a bone fracture occurs you will notice some of the following:
- Bruising
- Swelling
- Deformity
Of these three, deformity is by far the most obvious sign that you’ve broken something.
Simple breaks such as fingers or wrists may be ok being treated at a local urgent care. However, breaks that involve areas such as the ribs, spine, skull, face, pelvis and major arm and leg bones are definitely worth a trip to the Emergency Room.
Head on over to St. Michael’s Elite Hospital because we will be able to get you treated quickly. With our on-site doctors and radiology department, we can help treat the pain and determine the severity of the break so treatment can be put into motion.
