In rare cases, you may need traction, a system of pulleys and weights around your hospital bed that hold your bones in the right position.

For a basic break, your doctor may have to set the bone back in place. Then, you'll probably get a splint, brace, or cast to support your bone and keep you from moving it. Your doctor may also give you medicine for the pain.

Aside from pain, your body sets off all kinds of alarms to tell you something's really wrong. You might feel chilly, dizzy, or woozy. You might even pass out. Around the break itself, you might notice:

Greenstick: breaks on one side, but bends on the other--like a fresh stick from a tree

Doctors talk about broken bones, also called fractures, with a few basic terms:

From the crunch of a sports injury to an accidental fall, people break bones in all kinds of ways -- usually from some sort of impact. Bones are strong and even have some give to them, but they have their limits, too. They can even bleed after a serious break. Diseases like cancer and osteoporosis can also lead to breaks because they make your bones weaker and more fragile.

Your urine might smell funky if it hangs out in your bladder for a while. That may also raise your chances of getting a UTI. This may happen more often in children who don't p*e when they feel the urge. That's why it's always a good idea to remind kids to take bathroom breaks.

Also called trimethylaminuria, this genetic condition can give your p*e a fishy smell. It happens when your body can't break down trimethylamine. You end up getting rid of the compound through your p*e, sweat, breath, and other fluids. It doesn't mean you're unhealthy. But your doctor can help you manage the smell. They may give you antibiotics, special soap, or suggest eating certain foods.

Some babies are born with a condition called tyrosinemia type 1. It means they don't have the right enzyme to break down the amino acid tyrosine. Too much of this compound can give body fluids, like urine, a rotten odor. It may smell like cabbage. Tyrosinemia is treated with medicine and a low-tyrosine diet.
