Orthopedic Trauma & Fracture Care in Colorado Springs
Trauma can occur from any injury that endured enough force to cause a fracture or significant damage within the body. Care for simple fractures (such as a transverse, longitudinal or stress fractures) may require only casting or splinting. Common causes of fractures include motor vehicle accidents, sports injuries, and falls.
