Your Child’s Fracture May NOT Need Surgery!!

Hearing that your child has a fracture can immediately make parents fear surgery, hospital admission, or long-term complications. But in reality, most fractures in children do not require surgery. In this short, we explain why children’s bones heal very differently from adult bones.

In this short, a doctor from Practo explains how children’s bones are more flexible and capable of natural healing compared to adult bones. Many fractures remain naturally aligned and can heal successfully with just a plaster or fiberglass cast. Surgery is usually reserved for more complex situations where the bone is severely displaced or the growth plate is involved.

This clip is taken from our full doctor-led video where we explain child fractures, bone healing in children, plaster casts, fracture surgery myths, growth plate injuries, and the most common fears parents have after pediatric fractures.
