Forearm fractures involve breaks in the bones of the forearm, namely the radius and ulna. They can occur due to trauma, falls, or sports injuries. Common symptoms include pain, swelling, deformity, and difficulty in moving the arm. Treatment may involve immobilization with a cast or splint, and in some cases, surgery may be necessary to realign the bones. Rehabilitation and physical therapy help restore strength and function to the forearm. Timely medical attention is vital for accurate diagnosis and appropriate management of forearm fractures.
