After a fracture, bone healing is possible, primarily through the formation of a bony callus that bridges the two fractured bone ends, ultimately leading to bone union. During callus formation, heat is generated, which is why patients often perceive a sensation of warmth or fever at the fracture site. It is recommended to develop an optimal treatment plan based on the specific nature and severity of the fracture, providing targeted supportive therapy to facilitate fracture healing.
