Treatment options
Non-surgical
- Splint, cast, brace, elevation, pain-control, and safe movement guidance for stable injuries
- Repeat X-ray or alignment review when healing position needs monitoring
- Cast-care instructions to watch swelling, circulation, skin irritation, stiffness, and warning signs
Surgical
- Hospital or surgical review is advised if the fracture is unstable, displaced, open, joint-involving, or unsafe for clinic-only care
- Emergency care is safer for severe pain, visible deformity, blue/numb/cold fingers or toes, major accident, head injury, fainting, or circulation concern
Rehab & return to activity
- First visit: decide if clinic review is safe, confirm likely diagnosis, and plan X-ray or cast/splint care if needed
- Early follow-up: monitor swelling, skin, circulation, pain, and whether alignment is staying acceptable
- Later recovery: start safe movement and rehab when the fracture or sprain is stable enough

FAQ
When should I go to emergency instead of clinic?
Go to hospital emergency for an open wound over the injury, visible deformity, severe uncontrolled pain, numb/blue/cold fingers or toes, major accident, head injury, fainting, or circulation concern. Do not wait for WhatsApp in these situations.
Can a clinic review a plaster or cast problem?
A stable cast or plaster concern can often be reviewed in clinic, especially for pressure points, skin irritation, swelling checks, and follow-up planning. Severe tightness with numbness, blue/cold digits, or worsening pain needs urgent care.
Do I need a repeat X-ray after a fracture?
Often yes when alignment could shift or healing position needs monitoring. Repeat X-ray timing depends on the bone involved, fracture pattern, age, swelling, and treatment plan.
How do I know if it is a sprain or fracture?
Pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty using the limb can happen in both. The exam and, when needed, X-ray help separate sprain, hairline fracture, and more serious fracture patterns.
Does every fracture need surgery?
No. Many stable fractures heal with a splint, cast, or brace when alignment is acceptable. Surgery is discussed when the fracture is unstable, displaced, involves the joint surface, or function is at risk.
What should I bring for fracture or cast review?
Bring all X-ray films/images, reports, ER discharge papers, prescriptions, old photos if swelling changed, and details of the cast, splint, or brace already applied.
