Fibula Fractures

The fibula (also called the calf bone) is thinner than the adjoining tibula.  Tibula fractures can include the following:

  • Oblique fibula fracture - a fracture which goes at an angle to the axis
  • Spiral fibula fracture - a fracture which runs around the axis of the bone
  • Comminuted fibula fracture - a fracture of many relatively small fragments
  • Compound fibula fracture - a fracture (also called open) which breaks the skin (The last two are very common in car accidents resulting in fibula fractures.)

Compensation for a broken fibula can include payment for medical expenses, pain and suffering, loss of earnings, emotional stress, and other damages.  It is vital to act quickly after a car accident. The sooner you contact a car accident lawyer at Pritzker | Olsen, P.A. , the better able we will be to preserve evidence, gather essential witnesses, and to address other important factors.
