Fracture Clinic
The fracture clinic at the Treatment Centre (opposite the Queen's Medical Centre) sees a wide range of patients with different fractures and at different stages of their treatment.
The team arranges tests such as X-rays and other scans plus any treatment needed such as wound care, fitting plaster casts and splints or surgery. Some patients may need to visit the clinic several times.
If you think you have a broken bone
The three most common signs of a broken bone are:
- Pain
- Swelling

However, it can sometimes be difficult to tell whether a bone is broken. More detailed guidance is available on the NHS website.
If you think you have broken a bone you should seek medical help as soon as possible. You can get advice at any time by calling NHS 111 or for serious injuries go to the Emergency Department.
