One type of injury that can come from certain accidents is broken bones. One type of bone fracture injury is an avulsion fracture. If you or a loved one has sustained an avulsion fracture from an accident, contact Mike Agruss Law for a free consultation so we can help you recover from this experience and get fairly compensated.

An avulsion fracture occurs when a fragment of bone tears away from the main mass of bone due to a break from the area where the bone attaches to a tendon or ligament. This occurs often in people who play sports and are often seen in the ankle, hips, or elbows. An avulsion fracture is accompanied by swelling, sudden and severe pain in the area, bruising, and limited movement. These can be treated with rest, icing the injury, and specific movement exercises. Surgery would be required only if the distance of the break-in bone is significant.
