Understanding Fracture & Trauma Care

Fractures and trauma require timely orthopaedic care to support proper healing, alignment, and long-term function. This includes everything from simple fractures to complex trauma involving multiple injuries or joint involvement.

Dr. Om Baghele provides specialist fracture and trauma care, including complex cases such as acetabulum surgeries and revision trauma for fractures that didn't heal correctly the first time.

His approach combines accurate diagnosis, careful surgical planning, and a recovery-focused treatment plan personalised to your specific injury and goals.

  • Road traffic accidents
  • Sports-related trauma
  • Direct impact injuries
  • Osteoporotic fractures (fragile bone fractures)
  • Failed previous fracture treatment
  • Workplace accidents

Treatment Always Starts with the Least Invasive Option

Conservative Treatment When Possible

  • Immobilization (cast or brace)
  • Pain management
  • Activity restriction and monitoring
  • Follow-up imaging to confirm healing

Some fractures can be managed conservatively when alignment and stability are adequate, avoiding unnecessary surgery.

When Surgery Becomes Necessary

Surgery is required when proper healing cannot be achieved conservatively — including displaced fractures, joint involvement, or previous treatment that didn't heal correctly.

  • Displaced or unstable fractures
  • Fractures involving joints
  • Open fractures
  • Failed conservative treatment or non-union
  • Complex trauma requiring surgical fixation

If you're unsure, Dr. Om will give you an honest assessment — including if you're not ready for surgery yet.

Fracture & Trauma — Frequently Asked Questions

When should a fracture be treated urgently?

A fracture should be evaluated urgently when there is severe pain, visible deformity, inability to bear weight, major swelling, or suspected serious trauma.

Can all fractures heal without surgery?

No. Some fractures can be managed conservatively with immobilization, while others require surgical fixation for proper alignment and recovery.

What happens if a fracture doesn't heal correctly?

This is called non-union or malunion, and may require revision trauma surgery to correct alignment and support proper healing.

How long does fracture recovery take?

Recovery time varies significantly depending on the bone involved, the severity of the fracture, and the treatment used — ranging from a few weeks to several months.

Can old, untreated fractures still be fixed?

Yes. Revision trauma surgery can often address fractures that didn't heal correctly the first time, though the approach depends on how the bone has healed and how much time has passed.
