Fracture Due To Trauma:
Trauma is the most common cause of fracture. A fall from height, motor car accident, or direct blow while playing sports can result in a fracture due to trauma to the bone.²

Fracture Due To Overuse:
Repetitive motions and overuse caused by simple daily activities, such as intense jogging or running, can lead to fractures due to indirect pressure created on bones. It is a form of stress fracture and mainly affects athletes.²

Fracture Due To Osteoporosis:
Osteoporosis is a bone condition that can weaken the bones and lead to an increased risk of bone fractures.²

As you age, your bones begin to weaken, and the risk of developing fractures increases. Although both men and women are prone to fractures, women have a higher risk of developing fractures because of increased bone loss at menopause.³

In India, around 20 million individuals are hospitalized each year because of injuries.⁴ Hence, it’s crucial to understand the causes and risk factors of fractures.
