Differences between<unk>  and adult<unk> s An illustration showing the stages of healing of fractured<unk> . There are differences in the<unk>  structure of a<unk>  and an adult. These differences are important for the correct evaluation and treatment of the fractures. A<unk> 's<unk> s heal faster than an adult's because a thicker, stronger, and more active dense fibrous membrane (periosteum) covers the surface of their<unk> s. The periosteum has blood vessels that supply oxygen and nutrition to the<unk>  cells. The stronger and thicker periosteum in<unk> ren causes a better supply of oxygen and nutrients to the<unk> s, and this helps in the remodeling of the fractured<unk> s by supplying. The periosteum in<unk> ren causes a more rapid union of fractured<unk> s and an increased potential for remodeling. A<unk> 's fractures not only heal more quickly, but are significantly reduced due to the thickness and strength of a<unk> 's periosteum. But this thickness also has its drawbacks; when there is a small displacement in the periosteum the thickness and strength of it will make the fracture in the periosteum difficult to diagnose. Growth plate Growth plates are the areas in<unk> s where the<unk> s grow. In<unk> ren the growth plates are open, which helps to manage a<unk> 's fractures. Age and sex related fractures<unk>  fracture types differ depending on the age and sex of the<unk> . The changes in the<unk> s over time cause variance in the pattern and number of<unk>  fracture injuries. The probability of<unk>  fractures in<unk> ren increases with age. For a small<unk> , injuries will most likely be minimal because the<unk>  doesn't have the speed or mass to cause serious injuries. When age increases, so does mass and speed resulting in more serious fractures. The age when girls usually fracture a<unk>  is twelve and for boys the age is fourteen. Also, girls statistically have fewer fractures than boys. About half of boys and one-fourth of girls are likely to have a fracture during<unk> hood. The wrist is also the most likely part of the body to be injured. As sport activities increase, the fractures in<unk> ren increase as well, especially for boys who participate in either wrestling or football. Much like<unk>  types in the different stages of<unk> hood are varying, so the<unk>  fracture injuries in infants,<unk> ren, and adolescents vary. Careful evaluation for the best treatment of each<unk>  is needed.
