What is a Broken Arm?

A broken arm, also known as an arm fracture, occurs when one or more of the arm bones break due to trauma such as a fall, accident, or direct impact. The arm consists of three bones the humerus in the upper arm and the radius and ulna in the forearm. A fracture may range from a small crack to a complete break with displacement.

Treatment depends on the type and severity of the fracture. While simple fractures may heal with casting alone, displaced or unstable fractures often require surgical intervention to realign and stabilize the bones for proper healing.
