Can an elderly person break a bone even if they fall without pain?

  The elderly themselves have osteoporosis and are prone to fractures. Due to the poor sensitivity to pain, some elderly people have already had a fracture but did not feel any obvious pain, and not seeking medical attention in time can easily delay the condition. Therefore, if an elderly person falls, he or she should not think that no fracture will occur if there is no pain, but should seek timely medical consultation whenever he or she falls.  In the case of femoral neck fracture, for example, if after trauma, although there is no pain or only mild hip discomfort, but still able to walk or ride a bicycle, such patients should also pay great attention to the fact that it is likely to be a fracture of fracture or insertion. As long as you go to the hospital in time to check the film, you will avoid misdiagnosis and miss diagnosis.
