Medical Conditions - Nonunion

Nonunion refers to fractured bones failing to join even after treatment. Under normal conditions, broken bones heal well with surgery or other treatment. But when the injury was severe or of a high impact nature, the union of bones may be impaired. Also when there is no stability or blood flow in the region.
