🦴 **Neglected Fractures—A Silent Crisis**
🚨 **A fracture left untreated is more than just a broken bone.**
🚨 **A fracture left untreated isn’t just painful—it can change a life forever.**
In many regions, predominantly rural and underserved areas, fractures are often neglected due to:
- 🏥 Limited access to orthopedic specialists
- 💸 Financial hardship or lack of insurance
- 🧓 Reliance on traditional bone setting without proper imaging
- 😷 Fear or stigma around hospital visits
📉 The result?
- Bones heal incorrectly (malunion)
- Joints stiffen, mobility declines
- People lose their ability to work, care for family, or live independently.
