Detailed description
A foot fracture refers to a break in the bones below the ankle, which is very common in daily life, accounting for 1 in 10 fracture patients.
Fractures usually occur when bones are suddenly crushed, bent, twisted, or stretched. Children are more prone to fractures because their ligaments and tendons are stronger than their bones or cartilage.
