A fracture is a break in the bone, which is either complete or partial. Most fractures are caused by a sudden injury that puts more pressure on the bone than it can withstand

Areas of the body where fractures most often occur include the hand, wrist, ankle, collarbone and the neck of the femur of the hip, which can be the result of a fall.

Physiotherapy is used once the bone has been realigned and splinted, usually by encasing it in plaster of Paris. The physiotherapist may offer advice about positioning of the limb as well as teaching exercises to avoid muscles wasting and to prevent stiff joints. They will also help the person to get used to crutches and other appliances

After the plaster is removed, the physiotherapist plans a rehabilitation programme taking into account the person's needs and lifestyle. Using techniques including specific exercises and general fitness programmes, the aim is to reduce any swelling, regain full muscle power and joint movement and to bring back full function
