Open Fracture In an open fracture, the broken bone is so far displaced that it breaks, or nearly breaks, the skin. Infection is a risk with open fractures because of the open wound. Click to Continue

Closed Fracture In a closed fracture, the broken bone is not displaced as far, so it does not break the skin. Closed fractures are harder to diagnose, especially when they occur near a joint. Ankle fractures can look very much like sprains. When in doubt, treat injuries like that as breaks. Click to Continue

Suspect a fracture or dislocation if: Gentle pressure causes pain The limb or joint appears deformed The joint is swollen and extremely painful You see bruising of joint or limb The patient is unable to move the injured part End of bone has pierced the skin Any time you suspect a fracture, you should treat it as a fracture!
