Is it a fracture if it doesn’t move and doesn’t hurt?

Immobility without pain can also be a fracture, because the principle of fracture pain is that the external compression of the fracture end, or the case of friction, leads to the corresponding pain. Some linear fractures do not move without pain, and it is mainly manifested by very pronounced swelling and local ecchymosis. Whatever happens, an early visit to the hospital is required to perform an X-ray to determine if a fracture is present. If there is a fracture present, aggressive treatment should be taken to prevent displacement of the fracture and avoid deformity healing to the limb. If there is no fracture, local cold therapy can be taken early, taking the form of hot compresses, and also the appropriate use of blood-strengthening drugs, which can promote the reduction of swelling and relieve pain.
