Respuesta :

Galeazzi's fracture/dislocation involves a fracture of the distal radial shaft with proximal radioulnar joint disruption and subluxation of the proximal ulna.

Usually in a bone, a fracture is a break. It is referred to as an open or complicated fracture if the shattered bone pierces the skin. An key component of severe subaxial cervical spinal injury is subluxation. Due to ligamentous damage and jumped facets, there is various degrees of slippage between the bodies of the vertebrae relative to each other, which increases the risk of spinal cord injury. Rest, ice packs, and NSAIDs are used to treat subluxation of the shoulder and to lessen the discomfort and swelling. For shoulder strengthening activities to aid in preventing recurrence, you can be recommended for physical therapy.
