What is Phases of Bone Healing Explained about?
There are two types of bone healing: primary and secondary. Primary healing occurs with rigid fixation and direct contact between fracture segments, allowing new bone to grow across without a bridging callus. Secondary healing involves callus formation and mineralization to add stability, occurring with casting or external fixation. The three phases of fracture healing are inflammatory, reparative, and remodeling, with the inflammatory phase lasting 1-2 weeks to clear necrotic tissue and prepare for repair.
