Most fractures are caused by external forces, and the bone fractured is at the region where the force or shock has expended most of its force—for instance, from blows or being run over; or in some instances a fracture may be some distance from the region where the greatest amount of force has been made, such as falling for some distance, or concussions. We also see fractures of small projections of bones caused by great muscular exertion.
