Santa Ana Broken Bones Attorney
Frequently, motor vehicle accidents, falls or sports injuries cause painful broken bones. The force exerted on the bone when it is broken will determine the severity of the injury. However, additional complications due to injury to surrounding muscles, nerves, blood vessels, organs and skin can intensify the original injury and delay healing. If you suffered broken bones in Santa Ana, you need an experienced personal injury attorney to make sure you are adequately compensated for your injuries, losses and pain and suffering.
Broken Bones
The most serious complications a healthy adult accident victim can suffer, as a result of broken bones are:
- Osteomyelitis
- Osteonecrosis
- Pulmonary embolism
Osteomyelitis is an infection of a bone. Many different types of germs (bacteria) can cause osteomyelitis. However, infection with a bacterium called Staphylococcus aureus is the most common cause. Infection with a fungus is a rare cause.
Osteonecrosis is a disease caused by reduced blood flow to bones in the joints. With too little blood, the bone starts to die and may break down. Osteonecrosis is most often found in the hips, knees, shoulders, and ankles. You may have osteonecrosis in one or more bones.
Most times, a pulmonary embolism is caused by blood clots that travel from the legs or, rarely, other parts of the body (deep vein thrombosis, or DVT).
