Fracture bracing is a medical technique used to support and stabilize a fractured bone during the healing process. It involves the application of a specialized brace or splint to immobilize the affected area and promote proper alignment of the bone fragments. This helps reduce pain, prevent further injury, and facilitate the body's natural healing mechanisms. Fracture bracing is often prescribed as an alternative to casting or surgery, depending on the type and severity of the fracture. It allows for early mobilization and rehabilitation, leading to faster recovery and improved functional outcomes for patients.
