Why Do Bones Crack?

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Bone crack is known as fracture and it can happen to any person. The main reason of a bone crack is the trauma on the bone. This trauma can be caused because of some physical activity, accident, disease or as a result of fall. In youngsters fracture of the bone mainly occurs because of trauma while in adults and old people it can happen because of weak bones. Bones have calcium depositions and minerals in them and with time these minerals are released from the bones which lowers the density of the bones and make them weaker. This process is known as osteoporosis. In this way the fracture can happen because of weak bones. People who have certain cancers, bone diseases and bone tumors are more prone to have bone fractures.
