Overview of Fracture and Trauma Care

Trauma and fracture care includes the diagnosis, stabilisation, and treatment for joint injuries or broken bones caused by falls, accidents or other sports-related accidents. In SMH Prime Ortho we make use of sophisticated imaging technology and precise assessments to determine the best treatment plan based on the nature and severity of the injury. Our treatment plan ensures timely intervention to avoid injuries and ensure the best healing.

Common Symptoms and Conditions Treated

Patients may require fracture and trauma care for conditions including:

Early evaluation is crucial for preventing long-term functional limitations.

When Should You Consult an Orthopaedic Specialist?

It is imperative to seek prompt advice in the event of a bone injury, pain that is severe or loss of function. The clinic at SMH Prime Ortho, patients from Anand Vihar, Karkardooma, and East Delhi receive immediate assessment to determine the severity of the injury and determine the most appropriate treatment strategy. Early intervention can speed up the time to recover and reduce the risk of complications.

Severe Pain or Swelling

Persistent pain or swelling after trauma requires urgent assessment.

Visible Bone Deformity

Any misalignment or abnormal shape indicates a potential fracture.

Inability to Move Limb

Difficulty moving an arm, leg, or joint requires specialist evaluation.

Open or Compound Fractures

Bone exposure or wound contamination needs immediate care.

Instability or Weakness

Loss of joint stability may signal ligament or bone involvement.

Delayed Healing or Complications

Persistent pain or abnormal healing after previous injuries needs evaluation.

Common Fracture Conditions

Certain bones are more prone to breaking due to falls, injuries or contact with the ground. The early detection and prompt treatment of fractures can help keep the bone in motion and prevent complications.

Hip Fracture

A hip fracture usually occurs near the upper part of the thigh bone and can make standing or walking extremely difficult. It is commonly caused by falls, especially in older individuals, or high-impact accidents. Pain around the hip or groin and inability to bear weight are common signs that require urgent orthopaedic care.

Shoulder Fracture

Shoulder fractures affect the upper arm bone close to the shoulder joint and often result from road accidents, sports injuries, or sudden falls. These injuries can limit arm movement and cause noticeable pain or swelling around the shoulder area. Proper evaluation helps determine whether surgical or non-surgical care is required.

Wrist Fracture

Wrist fractures commonly occur when a person falls and lands on the hand. They can cause swelling, pain, and difficulty in gripping or moving the wrist. Early treatment ensures proper bone alignment and reduces the risk of long-term stiffness or weakness.

Elbow Fracture

An elbow fracture involves a break in one of the bones forming the elbow joint and may occur due to direct impact or a fall on the arm. Pain, swelling, and restricted bending or straightening of the elbow are common symptoms. Timely orthopaedic assessment helps restore joint function effectively.

Treatment Options Available at SMH Prime Ortho

Non-Surgical Treatment Approaches

For certain fractures or minor trauma, conservative care may include:

  • Casting, splinting, or bracing to immobilise the injured area

  • Pain management and anti-inflammatory therapy

  • Physiotherapy to maintain joint flexibility and strength

  • Activity modification to prevent further injury

These strategies aim to promote healing while preserving function.

Advanced Surgical Treatment Options

Surgical intervention is required for complex fractures, open injuries, or fractures that cannot heal with conservative care. Procedures may include internal fixation with plates, screws, or rods, and joint reconstruction if necessary. At SMH Prime Ortho, surgical planning prioritises precision, stability, and functional recovery.
