    • Discuss the following ideas if they apply to your chosen fracture:
      • What bone is it common in?
      • Why it is named or classified as it is?
      • Explain the mechanism of injury that it may result from.
        • For example, is it more common to occur due to trauma, due to a deficiency of a nutrient, metabolic disease, or another mechanism?
      • What is the common treatment of this type of fracture? Include any recommendations for nutritional support for bone health.
