Lower Leg Fracture - Broken Leg

Lower Leg Fracture - Broken Leg


A lower leg fracture is a term for a fracture or break to the two bones of the lower leg the Tibia and Fibula. Lower leg fractures are most commonly seen in the younger population and are normally the result of high impact trauma like car or motorcycle accidents including a pedestrian being hit by a car but also from contact sports.

The trauma causes a very intense immediate sharp pain around the fracture site this pain can radiate up into the knee and thigh and down into the ankle. The fracture is often accompanied by swelling and bruising and aggravated by most knee and foot movements this makes weight bearing and walking excruciating.

Osteoarhritis in the Knee

Osteoarhritis in the Knee


Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative disorder that is also referred to as joint degeneration but you will probably have heard most people use the term "joint wear & tear".

Symptoms initially start as mild knee pain and stiffness. The pain is likely to feel generalized rather than a pin point pain location. Gradually as the joint becomes more and more degenerated the joint pain symptoms will be coupled by intense stiffness leading to severe stiffness and painful joint locking.
