Fractures appear to be on the rise in kids, but no one is exactly sure why
Maggie O'NeillHealthSource
The incidences of children with broken forearms have been increasing in the past 50 years. Theories include children are heavier or may have weaker bones due to lack of calcium in their diets.
Kids may love their devices, but this hardly makes them less immune to broken arms. In fact, research suggests that the incidence of fractures in kids is increasing compared to decades past.
According to Amanda Magrini, an M.D. with Northern Nevada Medical Center, there is evidence showing there are more injuries of the arm than there were 50 years ago. Along with that, there are many different schools of thought as to why this is so.
