A femur fracture sometimes referred to as a broken thighbone, is a painful and dangerous injury. One of the most robust bones of the body, the femur, is frequently broken or fractured due to significant trauma, such as that received in a car accident. Severe pain, swelling, discomfort, physical deformity, and frequent inability to walk are signs of a femur fracture. Setting and immobilizing the leg are common forms of treatment for femur fractures, and in more severe situations, surgery may be necessary to promote adequate recovery.
