Are You a Candidate for Surgery?
If you or a loved one has experienced a fall, you may wonder whether repair surgery is required.
First, surgery is not always planned right away in these cases unless it is a very severe fracture. Second, plenty of surgical procedures and techniques are available to treat the same type of fracture. The decision of which one is better depends on the evaluation made by your orthopedist. They can provide you with information on the risks and benefits of each option, and they can also give you advice regarding your condition.
