Oh thats great question sarala.I think the tissues around the bone will damage and sweeling occurs.
A doctor can say about this.I am not so expert to answer this.
i think that the broken bones disturbs the flow of blood in the body.
for example sarala when you are watering plants through ground pipeline when pipeline breaks under the earth what will happen the plants will die with out water just like that when it breaks the area cells will get damage and swell.
Well explained sasikanth thank you for the clear explanation and clarifying my doubt

sasi, your explanation is very good and its is true also.. you have good knowledge and the way you presented the example is nice.. keep it up..
I think it is the protection mechanism of the body that comes to active suddenly.
I feel the tissue around the broken part gets disturbed and sudden swells up and gives us pain
when something hurts to skin cells or damage cells the nearby cells try to heal the damage cells and thus swallowed.

yes, tissues, muscles around broken bone gets damaged and because of intense sudden pressure on these tissues, swelling happens
I think swelling occurs,because the veins near that bone breaks and the blood starts flowing in our body.
Abhishek told us clearly about this as i guessed.Sweeling occurs between the tissues.
Sasinakth, you have explained well and yes Vinodh is right, you have given a proper example.
what is tissue? abhishek, can you explain this term?
Being a medical student I think I could explain this to you in a better way. Just understand a thing clearly.If our body is attacked by any foreign antigen our immunity produces inflammation. Inflammation has 5 components.
1. Pain 2.Swelling 3.Erythema (Redness) 4.Hardening 5.Fever.
Fever is not due to infection persay. It is our body's response to the infection.
When there is a fracture the blood vessels around it especially arteries and also veins are damaged. So there is oozing of blood which clots at the site of fracture which we call haematoma. This is responsible for swelling.Nature's gift is that haematoma is the only thing responsible for fracture healing also.
