Fracture or break in the bone can result from any injury. There is a pain, swelling and tenderness and there may be a deformity. The injured part should be prevented from moving. Usually, an X-ray is necessary to confirm whether there is a fracture or not. The injured part can be immobilized with a splint. A splint can be ready-made or improvised from any stiff material (stick, ruler, magazine and so on). The splint should be wider than the limb being splinted, and long enough to prevent movements of the joints near the fracture. Bind the splint in place above and below the fracture. If the person has a compound fracture, you must take some sterile gauze, put it over the wound and take the patient to the hospital immediately. A compound fracture is more serious, in which broken bone has pierced the skin.

AT THE DOCTOR'S
| Patient: | I haven't been feeling well, doctor. |
| Doctor: | What's wrong with you? |
| Patient: | I've had pain here - just below my heart |
| Doctor: | Do you have these pains all the time? |
| Patient: | No, not all the time: They usually come after meals. |
| Doctor: | After meals? Do you eat much? |
| Patient: | Well, I'm very fond of food. |
| Doctor: | That's the reason why you have these pains near the heart. You'd better eat not so much. What's your weight? |
| Patient: | About 85 kilograms, I think. |
| Doctor | Try to get your weight down. Not so much bread, no sugar, no butter, no cake. |
| Patient: | Well, I'll try. But it is not so easy. |
