Fracture
Fractures:
Fractures are common in children. Because of growing bones, it is important that broken bones in kids are treated properly.
Some kids need coaching to apply weight through their lower extremities following immobilisation. A physiotherapist can help a child learn to accept weigh in standing and coach them for walking.
The therapist will be available to answer concerns regarding return to sports activities.
