Multiple fractures – who can claim?

You could be entitled to maximum personal injury compensation where your multiple fracture wound was caused by an accident that was not your fault – this includes instances of criminal injury. You may experience difficulty in self-diagnosing multiple fractures. Where a bone is not visibly displaced, symptoms such as pain and swelling could be misinterpreted as a sprain or a strain.

Multiple fracture symptoms include:

• Deformity
• Relative instability
• Unnatural lumps under the skin
• Heavy bruising (also known as ‘contusions’)
• A break in the skin directly over the affected area

You may also experience a decrease in muscle strength in the affected area. This is typically accompanied by tingling and a temporary reduced sensation in the surrounding tissue.

Types of Fracture

Common types of fracture include:

• Compound fracture – the broken bone penetrates the skin
• Comminuted fracture – the bone shatters or splinters into many pieces
• Stable fracture – a clean break allowing the bone to re-align with relative ease
• Oblique fracture – a diagonal fracture (typically the most complicated type of fracture)
