Breaking your Arm

The most common ways to break your Arm Naturally:

A broken arm may involve any of the three bones in your arm - the ulna, radius and humerus.

One of the most common causes of a broken arm is falling onto an outstretched hand, or just falling and hitting it at just the right angle to snap the bone. Another common cause is trauma such as a car accident or someone dropping something heavy on it at work, etc.

High impact sports (football etc..) is a common cause of injury to the arm.
